SYNOPSIS

Eddie and Skids are partners in crime, small-time hoods who make their living through shake-downs and petty larceny. Drawn together by circumstance, and their mutual addiction to illegal drugs, they wander through the streets of the city, searching for potential victims in order to appease their habits. In their time together, they have been lucky; they have had repeated success in their criminal activities, and have managed to avoid the law longer than most of their kind. They have no reason to believe that tonight will be any different.

Tonight, however, their luck takes a turn for the worse, when their mark, whom they think is a hapless street musician, turns out to be something entirely different than what he appears. Armed with nothing but an odd, antigue-looking eight-stringed guitar, this man will show these two desperate criminals that music can have the power to entertain, to entrance, and even to kill.
