Annie Mary has a dream of becoming a singer, but her responsibilities as the caretaker of her father Jack, who is paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair, prevent her from pursuing her passion. Annie Mary's life revolves around taking care of Jack, her job at the local bakery, and her friendship with her childhood friend Bethan Bevan. Bethan, who is a well-known singer in town, encourages Annie Mary to audition for a singing contest in Cardiff. Annie Mary is hesitant at first, but ultimately decides to try out for the contest, hoping to win the prize money to pay for Jack's medical treatment.
