Proof of Concept Pilot episode for a TV series about A police department.

Greenpoint Tavern tells the story of seven men, all from different walks of life, who share their personal stories and connections to the events of September 11 over the course of one evening at a local bar in Brooklyn. But much more than that it is an intensely dynamic study of the nature and perpetuation human conflict and how we manage to coexist, or perhaps simply survive, in the face of that. The story is powerfully illustrative of the fact that the struggle between hostility and compassion may well be the fiercest battle in which we, as a violent but nurturing species, are engaged. So, while 9/11 serves as centerpiece for the conflict and dialog within the piece, it is ultimately a frame of reference for this particular microcosm of human existence. Friendships are tested, tears are shed and laughter erupts all at unexpected moments as the seven men, most of them strangers, reveal their angers, regrets and, perhaps most deeply, their feelings of loneliness and despair following the loss of their friends and loved ones.

The story of a tragic case of mistaken identity unfolds as the FBI detains a Moroccan woman thought to be the wife of the lead terrorist in the Sept 11 attacks on the World Trade Center.

The story revolves around two families, portraying their relationship, and how a hen and its eggs changes it over time.

Louis is a talented jazz musician who, after giving up music, now makes ends meet by working as a taxi driver and dealing cocaine, but ruining his relationship with his wife and daughter. But when an old friend of his father offers him to join his band for an important concert, the protagonist is presented with an opportunity for redemption.
