The back room at the Arc

In Hollywood, where everyone has a dream, actor/writer/producer/director Bogdan spends his days at the Rising Arc; AKA "the Screenplay Cafe". With more gray hairs than credits to his name, he is surprised to find himself involved with the much younger Luz, who has dreams of her own. Around these two, we meet others in this industry hangout - Sidney the director, Rusty the former TV writer, Burgess the philosopher, and the young hopefuls behind the counter: the lush and lusty Katy, the hyper-hip Dickie Tweet, the manly but mysterious Danny... Bogdan shares their stories of success and failure, even as his own romance goes through surprising twists and turns.
