An angry and wounded Iraq War vet moves into San Francisco seedy Tenderloin neighborhood to lose himself in drinking, but finds instead a closer relationship with his young son, a tenement hotel full of exquisitely odd characters, and the red-hot Skyler. For over a hundred years the Tenderloin district has endured as a place to go when all other options are off the table. A block from Neiman Marcus shoppers picking through Prada and pearls, are the lowest rents in town and the loosest rules. Immigrants, recovering addicts, artists, students and outcasts for no apparent reason and those who pray on them all call this place home. A character portrait indie feature with a irresistible honesty of a beautiful relationship between a father and his son against all odds. In the tradition of The Messenger, Brothers and The Pursuit of Happiness.
