San Francisco, 1950: The residents of the Honeysuckle Rose Hotel – musicians all – are a quirky bunch each with their secrets, addictions, sins of their own making, traumatic issues that weigh down upon their shoulders, nightmares from the past, or dreams of things the way they ought to be. Earl Crier, a blind, bluesy crooner, is their heart and soul, until one day when a policeman sees a tall black man mugging – hugging a blind white man on the front steps of the hotel, this house of cards begins to fall. As the blues man falls silent can the Honeysuckle Rose survive?
