    Immensely moved, especially by the fact that original scores which survived the camp were used for the vocal orchestra.

    But the inspirational aspects of the tale--which mainly has to do with the determination of Close to form a vocal orchestra at the camp, despite the class divisions between the women--never quite carry the dramatic impact they're supposed to.

    The story has charming and uplifting moments as well as strong performances by an impressive cast.
