Helen has always dreamt of singing at Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe. With only a few weeks left to live, she sets off for Nashville but lands instead in Jamaica. Helen ends up in the hands of Rosie, who helps her make it to Montego Bay, but she soon has no money left to leave the island. She has no better luck singing for her supper: a German woman crooning country ballads isn’t what American tourists want to hear in Jamaica. With time running out, Helen begins to let go of her dream and her life, but finds an unlikely life raft in Rosie.
