Plot

Freda Lopez is a singer and songwriter who desires to have a career as a performer, but lacks the courage to pursue it. Her husband Vincent Lopez insists to her that music is only a hobby for her. Freda and Vincent decide to take a vacation to Savannah, Georgia, where they meet Camilla Cara, who lives near their cottage. Freda and Camilla bond when Freda learns that Camilla was once a musician, having previously enjoyed a renowned career in her native Canada as a concert violinist. Camilla regales Freda with stories about her greatest triumph, performing the Brahms' Violin Concerto at Toronto's Winter Garden Theatre. When Camilla learns that the Brahms concerto is to be performed again at the Winter Garden, she and Freda decide they don’t want to miss it and head north to Canada together.

Left behind are Vincent and Camilla’s son Harold, a B-movie producer. When they discover the ladies have vanished, they go on a search for the women, and in the process come to realize that they must reconcile their broken relationships with the women in their lives.
