To what lengths will an aspiring artist go to achieve success? Conspiracy? Fraud? Murder? Will Hogan faces moral dilemmas in his quest for artistic recognition, and the woman who shares his dream may not be the best influence. When Pope Paul III pardoned Benvenuto Cellini of murder because he was an artist, he set a bad precedent for these two.
Having compromised his dream of being a full time artist, Will works as an architect in a small southern town in order to be close to his daughter who lives with his ex. He pours his energy into his art and renovating an old service station into a studio, but his personal and professional lives are complicated by others, including his boss, who wants Will to manage the firm; and the amorous wife of a friend, who wants Will as a lover.
His creative efforts are hindered by an ex-con who once used the abandoned service station illegally, and still thinks of it as his own. With his teenage son, the ex-con harasses Will with acts of vandalism.
When Will meets a female artist named Roky, he finds himself making decisions that will change the course of his life.
