Description

Jun Nakayama was a silent film star in the early days of Hollywood but, by 1964, he finds himself living in complete obscurity - until young writer Nick Bellinger tracks him down for an interview. When Bellinger reveals that he has written a screenplay with Nakayama in mind, Jun is intrigued by the possibilty of returning to the big screen. But he begins to worry that someone might delve too deeply into the past and uncover the events that led to the abrupt end of his career in 1922. These events include the changing social and racial tides in California and an unsolved murder.
