Very impressive accomplishment for first time director Katheryn Grant, who also performed the leading role with magnificent persuasion. Her role (hard to play) is of an ingénue who has no understanding of the corrupt and harsh world of the music industry. Yet, despite the manipulations of her seducer, she is inspired her to continue her singing efforts. I saw the film at the SENE film festival in Providence, where she won as best Director, and the film also won honorable mention. The period's ambiance, the costumes, the talented co-actors were all superbly cast. The storyline has unexpected twists and when all is combined, it creates an emotionally satisfying, uplifting film that touches on universal truths.
