The film traces the life of tenor Enrico Caruso (1873-1921). He loves Musetta from his hometown of Naples and then Dorothy, the daughter of a patron of the Metropolitan Opera. Caruso is unacceptable to the fathers of both women: to one because he sings; to Dorothy, because he is a peasant. To the New York aristocracy, Caruso is short, with a round chest, loud voice, emotional, and unrefined. Their appreciation comes slowly. The film depicts Caruso's lament: “A man has no voice; a voice has a man”: he cannot go where he wants because he must sing elsewhere, including on the day his mother dies. From beginning to end, Mario Lanza sings with the stars from the Met.
