1954
Hollywood's golden age is running hot - Technicolor musicals, flashing marquees, and studio stars with smiles carved in light. Donald O'Connor still knows how to charm a crowd. But behind the dance numbers and dazzling grin, something's slipping.
Then Evan shows up - a quiet, offbeat stranger with eyes too knowing and clothes a little out of place. He says little. Asks even less. But he sees things - things even the spotlight can't hide.
When Evan finds himself swept into the orbit of a fading star, the studio system, and a man dancing too fast to fall apart, he doesn't try to fix anything. He just stays. Listens. Watches the cracks.
Because sometimes, even in the brightest decades, it takes a stranger to notice when someone's fading.
And maybe, just maybe, there's time for one more number.
