In 2005, the only thing hurting Los Angeles Times columnist Steve Lopez more than his face from a recent bike accident was his pressing need for story ideas. That is when he discovers Nathaniel Ayers, a mentally ill, homeless street musician who possesses extraordinary talent, even through his half-broken instruments. Inspired by his story, Lopez writes an acclaimed series of articles about Ayers and attempts to do more to help both him and the rest of the underclass of LA have a better life. However, Lopez's good intentions run headlong in the hard realities of the strength of Ayers' personal demons and the larger social injustices facing the homeless. Regardless, Lopez and Ayers must find a way to conquer their deepest anxieties and frustrations to hope for a brighter future for both of them. (imbd)

. Ah well enjoy the film

Really looking forward to this. Remeber seeing a trailer for it at some screening late last year; any idea why it was delayed so long?

Dont know either as had been waiting for its release. Thanks to Demerara for posting code and good on Kirley for trying to post. I hardly ever get codes these days as so many others faster than me.

There must have been a hiccup on the site as I was booking. I requested a single ticket and got the confirmation screen up so I went to my emails and there were two emails with two seperate tickets on different confirmation codes. I've gone to 'retrieve' and there are two seperate ones listed there so I guess I have to cancel one.
On another note. it doesn't list the number of tickets left anymore just that there are some left.
