Two kindred spirits from different worlds, whose passion for music is rivaled only by their passion for one another. Cornelia, a shy, eccentric country girl, in rural 1950s Virginia, who idolizes Maria Callas, is an unlikely operatic prodigy. She shares a passion for music and much more with Jay, a struggling, young composer, anxious to escape his aristocratic background and the demands of his overbearing father. As their romance grows, Jay and Cornelia inspire each other to overcome obstacles in their paths to turn their respective dreams into reality. Can their love for one another survive the efforts of their very different families -- including threats and bribery -- to keep them apart?
