Lito's Last Chance is a coming-of-age story of a twelve-year-old boy who dreams of singing in his village's award-winning children's choir. But when the Philippines' biggest pop star returns home to work with the choir that launched her career, she brings along a crate of old Motown records. When Lito is introduced to the soul-stirring music, he finally discovers the power and beauty of his own voice. Lito is offered a coveted spot in the choir, but his gambling-addicted father forces Lito to help with a dangerous scheme to win back the money he's lost.
