Plot summary
1960s Detroit. Brimming with soul and emotion, The Dreamettes--a Detroit-based black vocal trio composed of lead singer Effie White and backup singers Deena Jones and Lorrell Robinson--are bent on fulfilling their big dream to conquer the top. And after a chance encounter with ambitious used car salesman Curtis Taylor Jr at an amateur talent show, The Dreamettes become backup singers for legendary R&B star Jimmy "Thunder" Early. This is a pivotal, make-or-break opportunity, and the girls are determined not to waste it.—Nick Riganas
