can't help but make people think about the revival of the musical genre. The box office result of US$18.15 million was only behind Warner Bros.' 2009 film "Sherlock Holmes" (which opened with US$24.6 million). The film revolves around Celie's coming-of-age story after being taken away by her husband, whom she did not love. And music serves as a central narrative element, setting the stage for the characters to express their struggles through song. As they grow older, Nettie and Celie navigate a world that isn't always kind to them, as the sisters try to explore their talents in the face of the brutal and racist realities of the era.

It tells the story of two Georgian black sisters, Nettie and Celie, who were separated as children and finally reunited after many years.
