Summary
Anton (Gabriel Casseus) isn't like the other kids in Harlem. He's na?ve and lacks street smarts, but he has a heart of gold and a dream to use his extraordinary operatic singing voice on stage. Running away from his aunt's house to find his place in the world, Anton is conned out of his money by Wes (Damon Wayans), a quick-witted street hustler. Anton later encounters a charismatic street musician Matthew (Christian Carmargo), who invites him to sing accompaniment. Wes witnesses Anton's wowing the crowds and sees a golden opportunity. The three men's lives entwine and lead each down a path of destruction, truth and redemption
