Leonora has set her sights on a career on the international stage. In pursuit of her dream, she arrives in the romantic city of Munich to study with renowned voice teacher Maestro Roberto Mazzone. Encouraged by the Maestro's vision of her as a future Madam Butterfly, she begins to follow the path he lays out for her. And then she meets handsome tenor Walter Saville, and falls in love. With conflicting loyalties to the Maestro and Walter, Leonora struggles to stay true to her dream. When Walter forces her to choose between them, she faces a heart-breaking decision.
