ALEX is a singer/songwriter/guitarist in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. He spends much of his time trying to stay sober. Looking for a fresh start, and against the advice of one of his only true friends, GEORGE, Alex relocates to Nashville with SASHA, his alcoholic ex-girlfriend. Once there, he realizes that his friendship with SILVIE just might be the best thing to happen to him in many years. Unfortunately, Silvie is back in New York and has not answered his calls. Alex finds that Nashville is no different from New York as long as Sasha remains in his life. After things come to a head with Sasha, Alex finally makes a clean break from her.
