Synopsis

A gifted beat maker navigates his big break after his song is stolen by a rising pop star.

Moviegoers are saying

This indie music drama divides audiences with its raw authenticity and bold narrative choices, earning praise for standout performances from David Lambert and Lauren Marano while frustrating viewers with abrupt pacing and polarizing character development. Based on an Off-Broadway play about a beatmaker whose song gets stolen by a pop star, it's a film that starts rough but finds its footing after a pivotal piano scene that transforms the entire viewing experience.

This was solid for a random indie. Ari Notortomasu is an awesome actor and hope to see them shine!

The movie was fun. I don’t think there’s enough appreciation for independent cinema, and I think this movie really emphasized that a good movie doesn’t need to have a high budget with an all star cast and an exquisite set, it can be simple and filmed on location. It was…

“Don’t go back to people who don’t believe in you.” Sometimes you see a movie on a whim and 1) it’s AMAZING and 2) you hear words you need to hear. David lambert and Lauren Marano absolutely KILLED this. So amazing!!

This movie employs a very bold strategy of being absolute dogshit at the start - like worst movie of the year material. Everything from the acting, screenwriting, direction, editing, etc, felt grating to watch. But then you get the piano scene and after that the rest of the…

This is honestly kind of a miserable film, no particular style or flair to give it more of a personality so that it just ends up largely being people talking in rooms. It’s way too steeped in music industry talk, leaving this as a rather emotionally numb experience. David…

A pretty bland, generic movie. Felt like the ending was rather abrupt and unsatisfying, with no resolution to the story or its characters. Some good performances I guess. But a movie about musicians is only as good as the music, and the music in this movie kind of sucks.
