After a fatal one night stand, a young film student named Steven Demko kills a hitman in self defense and steals mob money to help fund his film. He attends the American Film Institute, but while facing temptation in the Hollywood world of glamor and hidden gold, he finds himself the object of a hunt by a police detective and the mob, including the hitman's brother. Will the film ever get made? Who will show up on the set, and might be an odd collaborator? In the tradition of "Get Shorty," this thriller explores the violent world of mobsters, addiction and Hollywood filmmakers. It is also a love story.
