Experiencing Interruptions?

The Jingle Writer

Elias is a struggling songwriter on the verge of ending his life when a last-minute call sends him to play piano at a senior living facility. There, one of the residents asks him to teach her a Lady Gaga song, and their odd little musical project begins to pull Elias out of his grief and toward a reason to stay.
