THE ROSE

Rose is a rock star who is on the road for her last tour. Rose, (an artist strikingly similar to Janis Joplin) is a major music talent but her alcoholism and addictive behavior allow the rock star’s life to be controlled by her shark of a manager, Rudge. Chronicling the fall of this fictional rock & roll diva, the music industry shows one of it’s darker sides, as Rose approaches a concert date in her own home town, a place that she hasn't been too in years. Tortured by raging alcoholism and drug addiction, Rose's life begins to deteriorate to the point of complete self-destruction. Rose begs Rudge for a break in her grueling tour schedule, but her cries fall on deaf ears, and she is left with the inevitable.
