Скромный клерк Стивен живет со своими эксцентричными родителями и сварливой сестрой, не надеясь обрести счастье. И уж тем более он не предполагает, что его наивное желание стать чревовещателем перевернет его жизнь с ног на голову. Виртуозно манипулируя куклой, Стивен рассказывает миру о своих страхах и чувствах, попадая в самые невероятные и смешные ситуации. И вскоре он замечает, что мир не так уж и плох, как кажется. Все восхищаются талантливым парнем. Но будет ли Стивен таким же смелым и находчивым без своего нового друга?
In 1960s Detroit, a good night onstage can get you noticed but it won't get your song played on the radio. Here, a new kind of music is on the cusp of being born - a sound with roots buried deep in the soul of Detroit itself, where songs are about more than what's on the surface, and everyone is bound together by a shared dream.
Curtis Taylor, Jr. (Jamie Foxx) is a car salesman aching to make his mark in the music business - to form his own record label and get its sound heard on mainstream radio at a time when civil rights are still only a whisper in the streets. He just needs the angle, the right talent, the right product to sell.
Late for their stint in a local talent show, The Dreamettes - Deena Jones (Beyoncé Knowles), Lorrell Robinson (Anika Noni Rose), and lead singer Effie White (Jennifer Hudson) - show up in their cheap wigs and homemade dresses, rehearsing songs and steps by Effie's brother, C.C. (Keith Robinson), with hopes that talent and sheer desire will break them out of the only life that seems available to them.
They're young. They're beautiful. They're just what Curtis is looking for.
All they have to do is trust him.
