"For years, he has been searching for the perfect note. The one that is so pure nobody knows where it comes from. Daniel’s life was changed when he was 13 years old and heard the sound of Chet Baker's trumpet. Since then he has hated and loved, longed and fought for the note that is purer than anything else. Now, he's dead, and he looks back at everything he forsook. Could life have been different without Chet Baker?"
