In a purple psychedelic shirt with a kitten decal, high school choir director Ashley Tyree coaches teenagers over the cacophony of laughter and song. He believes that singing connects us to the best part of ourselves. Yet he funnels his own fears and anxieties into the brimming-over schedule of what looks like a workaholic. But a death in the family and health scares have Ashley looking at life differently. After three decades of teaching, Ashley wonders if educating is his biggest accomplishment, or if there’s another path to follow, another song to sing.
