A dark comedy, the film centers on the investigation into the murder of Wendy Johnson (Vanessa Bell Calloway), an aging and supposedly “over-the-hill” actress who has been blackmailing 9 other Hollywood types (Agent, Writer, Producer, Director and 5 actresses). Detective Blake (Michael Boatman of Spin City) is called in to interrogate the women, but his questioning is severely compromised as he is not only a detective, but also an aspiring screenwriter, actor and rapper and sees the interrogation as his way into “Hollywood.”
