Days ahead of his performance that will either make his dream a reality or prove it to be unattainable, Jonathan faces extraordinary pressure from all quarters, including from his girlfriend, Susan (Alexandra Shipp), who wishes for a life beyond NYC, and his friend Michael (Robin de Jesús), who has left acting in search of financial security. In addition, the artistic community in the city is facing the dangers of the AIDS epidemic. In the face of extraordinary odds, Jonathan is forced to confront what he must do with the time that he has and the opportunity that presents itself.
