The Downbeat

With a boss who bullies him and a wife who can't rely on him, Michal only has one thing that makes him feel good about himself - music. By day he is an unwilling mechanic unable to earn enough money to support his family. By night he sings and plays the Blues onstage.
Although Michal and his wife Olivia are struggling to get their son into a university and a white collar job, seventeen year old Casper has caught the Blues bug from his father. Now it is up to Michal to decide Casper's fate. Should his son choose a career founded on passion or security?
