Chasing his dream, Anton leaves his aunt's home in Harlem for downtown New York City, where a quick-witted street hustler named Wes cons him out of his life savings. Homeless and empty-handed, Matthew, a street musician stalled in his own dreams, invites Anton to perform with him in the park. Amazed by Anton's singing talent, Matthew befriends him and attempts to keep him safe from Wes's enterprising exploitation. Caught in the middle, Anton's journey isn't an easy one. The three men's lives entwine and lead each down a path of destruction, truth and redemption.
Anton est un jeune homme de 28 ans simple d'esprit qui vit d'un maigre travail à la blanchisserie. Mais il a un grand talent : une voix exceptionnelle. Il trouve réconfort auprès de Matthew, pianiste dans les parcs new-yorkais. Ensemble, ils unissent leurs talents pour attirer la foule et se faire un peu d'argent. Mais bientôt, Wes, un SDF beau parleur et manipulateur va essayer d'attirer Anton dans son filet pour profiter de son argent. Entre ces deux amis de Central Park, Anton va vivre un vrai chemin initiatique où il ne devra pas perdre son rêve de chanter un jour aux côtés du grand Fabiano Grazzi.
Das Ghettoviertel von Brooklyn ist keine schöne Gegend für einen jungen Mann wie Anton. Denn Anton ist kein gewöhnlicher Mann: Obwohl er geistig zurückgeblieben ist, gehört seine Liebe dem Gesang. Aber nicht jeder teilt Antons Liebe zur Musik. Als er von einem Drogendealer angegriffen wird, verbietet Antons Mutter ihrem Sohn auf der Straße zu singen. Für den jungen Anton ein unvorstellbarer Gedanke und so flieht er in die Straßen von New York. Was ihm dort widerfährt, grenzt fast schon an ein Wunder.
