What it’s about. Akira mène une vie sans but dans un immeuble en ruine destiné à la démolition, quand il rencontre Gill, un Afro-américain qui aime jouer de la mitrailleuse. Gill tente d’échapper à la police militaire après avoir tué un blanc. Passionné de jazz et de culture noire, Akira se sent proche de Gill, mais, ne parlant pas anglais, ne peut pas communiquer avec lui. Tantôt violents, tantôt comiques, leurs rapports chaotiques vont connaître un dénouement aussi tragique qu’inexorable. Avec la splendide musique du grand batteur Max Roach.
