The story

In downtown Manhattan, a twenty-something troubled hipster named Allie (Chris Parker), whose Father is gone and whose Mother is institutionalized, is a big Charlie Parker fan. He aimlessly wanders around the dingy Downtown of New York City and is confronted by a number of intriguing characters as he ponders the questions of life and searches for a better place—always keeping just ahead of whatever it is that seems to be chasing him.
