In a small Welsh mining town, Emlyn Parry (Simon Lack) leads the local miners' choir. Upon discovering the beautiful singing voice of David Goliath (Paul Robeson), Parry immediately grants him a job in both the mine and the choir.
Parry hopes to win a national choir meet on the strength of Goliath's virtuosity, but an unfortunate accident suddenly closes the mine, throwing the entire village into jeopardy.
