  • "It's 1916, and before Scott Joplin dies, he wants to provide for his wife and secure his place in musical history. He's written a musical drama, and his young piano student, Martin Niederhoffer, convinces him to try to get Irving Berlin to publish and produce the work. The next day, Niederhoffer walks into his office and finds Joplin crouched over the blood-soaked body of a young man. He hustles his teacher away, but the two are seen leaving the building. When Berlin denies ever getting the manuscript, Niederhoffer hires a hit man and gives him a deadline for returning the play."@en
