A gentle, sincere story of second chances, lifted by gospel singing and a warm mentor relationship, though it rarely surprises.

Overview: Tommy is a troubled young man with a history of crime. When he meets Memaw, an elderly lady, the two form a special bond with Memaw encouraging Charlie to sing in the local church choir, a talent he has ignored until now. While Charlie excels in church, his old friend G. Smooth remains skeptical and stays on the streets.
