I really like this film and I think it would be very sad if it was true. The song she sings in the end (Someone's watching over me) is a song I also find quite sad but in the end everything it says is true. You need to believe in yourself to follow a dream.
This is a film about a girl who loved singing. This girl was called Terry Flutcher (Hilary Duff) and she wanted to go to this music summer program but his dad didn't allow her go.
Without Terry knowing this, his brother sent a video of her singning at home and in the end she was accepted in the school.
Her brother decides to take her to a concert to celebrate it although Terry was supposed to stay in her room as a punishment for being so persistent on going to that school. Unfortunately her brother died while they were returning home because they had a car accident accident.
When Terry woke up she was in a hospital and her mum gave her the bad news and to make her a bit happier she also told her that she had a plan for her to go to that summer school. Terry would say as if she is going to be all her summer holidays with her auntie at her house (it was far away from home!!!!)
And so she did, but the standard of the school was very high and each time she tried to sing properly she remembered her brother and she just couldn't sing. She was very depressed until one the teachers spoke to her and made her understand she was there because of her beautiful voice and that if she didn't demonstrate she could sing as well as the girl in the video they received, she would have to go. So with the help of his new boyfriend (he was also in this school) and herself being strong she was able to sing in the final concert. She sang the song "Someone's watching over me" and she dedicated it to her brother.
In the end her father dicovered the plan and went to the school to take her back home, but he listened to her singing in the stage and he understood that being in that school had been for Terry the best thing which could have happened to her after the death of her brother.
