A former prodigy grapples with the belief that her best years are behind her in this sparkling debut about second chances and the healing power of art. Prudence Childs, once the most famous kindergartner, played at the White House and inspired countless children to pursue piano. However, as she entered adolescence, she realized she was merely an exploited child star, pushed by her attention-seeking grandmother. Feeling that her "genius" was a facade, Prudence escaped from performing and her handlers at eighteen, but this rebellion left her broke and isolated. Desperate for money, she turned to writing commercial jingles, which brought wealth but stifled her creativity. Now forty-eight, Prudence is determined to reclaim her musical genius by competing on a popular TV show. Her main rival is Alexei Petrov, a charming young pianist with a massive following. Yet, Prudence faces a greater threat from her ex-husband Bobby, who has proof of her alleged plagiarism of her iconic jingle. If she doesn't pay him off, he'll use her newfound fame to destroy her. Amidst quirky magic, humor, and emotional depth, Prudence embarks on a journey to overcome self-doubt and rediscover her brilliance.
