Nico Lenke (30) leaves a promising acting career in Argentina, after a tumultuous break-up with his producer. He lands in New York, lured into believing that his talent will help him find success “on his own” and prove his self-worth. But that's not what he finds. Too blond to play Latino, his accent too strong to play anything else, Nico falls through the cracks, and must juggle odd jobs to survive. Unwilling to return home and be seen as a failure, Nico manages to stay afloat thanks to his ability to pretend to be something he isn't. But he gets lost in his own lies/masks.
