Director in Attendance



Synopsis: A junkie nurse stumbles into his dream job – running the graveyard shift at a convalescent home. He beguiles the staff and charms the old folks. Then just as his drugs run out and the management starts closing in, a crafty old jazzman discovers his secret and makes him a sweet deal, but with heavy consequences.

En francais: Une infirmière de drogué trébuche dans son travail rêveur - en courant le cimetière décalez à une maison de convalescence. Il séduit le personnel et charme les vieux gens. Puis juste comme ses drogues épuisées et la fermeture de débuts de gestion dedans, un vieux jazzman astucieux découvre son secret et lui fait une affaire douce, mais avec des conséquences lourdes.

Film Trivia: Shot the film at a closed down federal mental ward only 300 yards from a working high security facility for the criminally insane, the largest in California. Boppin' actress Mews Mayra Small also starred in "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" as Jack Nicholson's girlfriend "Candy." This is lead actor Henry Dittman's first leading role in a feature film. Jazz composer character Tharin Sanders was inspired by Thelonious Monk.
