A gritty, convincing, and downbeat portrait of one man's self-destruction. Using the tragic story of Charlie Parker as its blueprint, it documents the last days in the life of Richie Stokes, a brilliant, yet addicted and aimless black saxophone player. A somber, sad, and reflective affair, full of affecting performances and a jazzy score.
