Synopsis

Alums of the hit TV show The Sopranos reunite in Michael Imperioli’s directorial debut, a gripping tale of interconnected New Yorkers attempting to find spiritual fulfillment as they struggle with drugs, alcohol and sex. Frank (Steve Schirripa), a late-night DJ with a cocaine addiction, is forced to confront his ex-wife, Sharon (Sharon Angela), when their depressed teenage son vanishes into a world of sexual promiscuity. Meanwhile, philosophical seeker Gus, fresh out of a detox program, searches for his ex-lover, Nadia.
