Ruby Rossi is a Child Of Deaf Adults (CODA), though she can hear. In addition, her only sibling, her brother, is also deaf. So, she is her family's sign-language interpreter and helps out on the fishing boat. Ruby signs up for the school choir in her final year of high school, and singing becomes her passion. Suddenly, the talented young girl finds herself at a crossroads: should she follow her dreams and attend Berklee College in Boston, or should she keep fighting everyday battles as a member of the proud Rossi clan?
