Raise Your Voice is a 2004 American teen musical drama film directed by Sean McNamara Terri Fletcher , a teenager with a passion for singing, has been accepted into a music program in Los Angeles to compete for a $10,000 scholarship shortly after her brother Paul 's tragic death in a car crash. However, her father Simon , a second-generation restaurateur, disapproves of Terri's plans, stating that being a singer may not be a worthwhile life choice. In reality, his opposition stems from resentment; Simon turned down a similar scholarship to run his parents' restaurant when they became ill; he... is intimidated by the thought of his daughter flourishing where he couldn't bring himself to try. However, Terri's mother, Frances , has a different opinion, knowing that Paul would have wanted Terri to attend the program. Frances tells Simon that Terri plans to live with her aunt Nina in Palm Desert for the summer and allows her daughter to travel to LA.
