Sinopse
Características

While all Mississippi bakes in the scorching summer of 1925, a sudden orphanhood casts its icy shadow across Emily Ann Teegarten, a pretty young teen.Taken in by an aunt bent on ridding herself of this unexpected burden, Baby Teegarten plots her escape using the only means at her disposal: a voice that makes church ladies cry and angels take notice. Im gonna sing jazz up to New York City, she brags to anybody wholl listen. Cept that Big Apple-well, its an awful long way from that dry patch of earth she used to call home.So when the smoky stages of New Orleans speakeasies give a whistle, offering all kinda shortcuts, Emily soon learns its the whorehouses and drug joints promising to tickle more than just a young girls fancy that can dim a spotlight . . . and knowing the wrong people can snuff it out.Jazz Baby just wants to sing-not fight to stay alive.
