A struggling Brooklyn artist is haunted by the ghost of Jean-Michel Basquiat — and the only way to save his own future is to recover Basquiat’s stolen past. With his first solo exhibition on the line and eviction notices looming, a 37-year-old painter teeters on the edge of collapse. He’s drowning in debt, eating ramen by the packet, and staring down a wall of untouched canvases. Then, in a haze of insomnia and subway rides, Basquiat himself appears — sharp-tongued, restless, and demanding.

Konstantin Duhovny ha perso il padre quando aveva dieci anni e da allora i fantasmi non hanno mai smesso di girargli intorno. Kostya non riesce a vederli, ma può percepire il sapore dei loro piatti preferiti. All'inizio a fargli visita sono i gusti di casa: fegato di pollo, cipolla, limone, gli ingredienti del pechonka, piatto preferito di suo padre. Ma, a poco a poco, sono altri sapori, inattesi, a solleticargli il palato: le pietanze preferite di persone che non sono più in vita.

In the present day, following the break-up of a controlling marriage, single mother Nell moves into the crumbling Victorian Merry Hall with her teenage daughter, Fern.
