Czech immigrant Selma (Bjork) arrives in the U.S. with her young son, finds a trailer to call home, and begins a dreary job at the Anderson Tool Company. Meanwhile, she suffers from a degenerative eye disease that her son has also inherited. She has no money to pay for the operations to save their sights. To escape the misery, Selma transposes herself through music. If you think the music serves to relieve the tragedy, think again!
