Description

Twelve Year-Old Chinelo is a piano prodigy. On this night, she has a date with the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra as a featured Soloist. On the way to the event, an accident happens; Chinelo is trapped inside the family's burning car. Her parents and many others will try to free her, all to no avail. It is obvious she will burn to death. But then, something bizarre happens; a man on the scene will not allow the little girl to burn alive to die such a horrible death: He provides her with the only escape possible. He shoots her to death seconds before the fire department arrives. And hence begins the most wicked, despicable tale about the evil that men do In the midst of it all, there is an unseen, but feel-able seduction from a surreal, awe-inspiring outpost to fortify a peculiar friendship. Even in death, Chinelo has something to say. And she does so in vivid, haunting details.
