In Search of Joshua King Jason Kalaus

Joshua King spends his nights sitting on different stools in different bars, listening to music that reminds him of the days-and more importantly, the people-he has lost. He only has one person left in his life. Liam, his best friend, has been with him from day one, and he may be the last reason for Joshua to hold onto the bar he's sitting in front of. He's stuck in a cycle of always searching the past for answers to his present state and looking for the one thing that will help him stop looking back and help him break free from his cycle of bars and lonely nights. Joshua is the only one who can see himself. No one around is let in to see what he really looks like. In Search of Joshua King examines the cracks that occur in a person when divorce becomes his earliest childhood memory. Songs play throughout as a soundtrack to Joshua's life and as a navigation tool that reveals how the divorce of his parents affected both him and the relationships that he so desperately clings to. His primary escape is to find a bartender who is willing to fill his glass for him and let him forget about everything he has lost in life-including his two loves.
