Synopsis by Maggie Sadler
In 1942, a young African-American man named Archie Glass (Rasheed Stephens) aspires to make it in Hollywood. When a young, white film star turns up missing, Archie sees his opportunity to break into the industry. However, the further he plunges into the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles, the more he begins to realize that the foundation of Hollywood glamor is built upon deception and racial tension. Written and directed by Detdrich McClure, the film also co-stars Tiara Parker and Caesar James.
