In 1915, waitress Francie Forrester has a voice like an angel, but few people in her small Midwestern town have ever heard, except in church. Between working and keeping an eye on her irresponsible mother and younger brother, who has time for music? Her misty daydream of becoming an opera singer must remain exactly that--a dream--until a new friend unexpectedly sets her on a rocky path leading to Chicago's glittering opera stage.
