A bittersweet, gently comic character study that drifts from warm nostalgia to quiet disillusionment, watching an old performer chase a fading dream.

How it feels: Melancholic, satirical, cynical and warm. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Aging, love, ambition, betrayal
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
