A music-industry romance about ambition, deception, and reclaiming one's authentic voice, balancing comedic charm with stakes about artistic integrity.

When talented young singer, Roxie Santos, meets music producer, Eddie Marz, he promises her an amazing new lifestyle and a future record deal. All he needs her to do is first lend her voice to a celebrity with no singing talent. However, when things go too far and it looks like she might lose her “voice” forever, she sets off to prove the truth.
