SECRETS COULD TEAR THEM APART . . .

1967: Judie Zingerman is rising to stardom as one half of folk duo the Singer Sisters.

As she and her sister Sylvia tour coast to coast, crowds can't get enough of Judie's confessional lyrics. Everyone can see they're heading for new heights. Yet something is about to push them off course...

1996: Alt-rocker Emma Cantor is playing the festival circuit, with her sights on a record deal. Emma has never understood why her mother, folk icon Judie Zingerman, gave up music at the height of her success.

But as Emma is catapulted into the spotlight as an MTV darling and LA It girl, fame brings its own heartache. Could discovering her mother's long-kept secrets help Emma find her path again?
