- Synopsis
- Sebastian Poe, a barfly jazz pianist, is trying to make ends meet, gigging at seedy jazz clubs
  to support his ailing sister Elise (Lori Petty). Work has dried up, and Sebastian becomes
  indebted to a corrupt police detective, Terry. When he can’t pay, Terry offers him one
  alternative - he must murder Stanley (Ed Westwick) by the end of the night. Sebastian
  desperately wants to play the piano, but first he must traverse the dark streets of Deep Ellum
  and silence his conscience.
