โWhen Kenny goes missing, his brother searches for him at a crossroad and an old speakeasy, where the cold, dark shadows of spirit and music lead him to a musician who may know if Kenny is alive . . . or dead. Kennyโs brother must put his trust in his belief that the music of the living may be the only way to transform and bring back a spirit of the dead.
