About the film
Aaron "Amadeus" Overlake is a visionary filmmaker revered for his genius but plagued by his own demons—a volatile alcoholic whose life is consumed by anger, controversy, and from a bitter heartbreak. As tabloids revel in his self-destruction, Aaron’s only anchor is his best friend, Santiago "Baron" Gonzalez, a charismatic actor fresh out of rehab, fighting to rebuild his career. Bound by shared struggles and a tangled history, Aaron and Santiago navigate the toxic undercurrents of fame and friendship. As Aaron embarks on his next masterpiece, his chaotic life threatens to destroy everything he holds dear.
