In a Massachusetts fishing town. Seventeen-year-old Ruby is the only member of her family who is not deaf – also referred to as CODA, an acronym for “child of deaf adults”. His life consists of acting as an interpreter for his parents and, every day, helping his father and brother on the family fishing boat before going to school. When Ruby joins the high school choir, she discovers a gift for singing and falls in love with her partner Miles. Encouraged by her enthusiastic and demanding teacher to apply to a prestigious music school, Ruby quickly finds herself torn between the obligations she believes she owes her family and the pursuit of her dreams.
