Starting Over Blues
A former drug dealer, Melvin, is released from jail and jumps right back in to being a husband and father. Although discouraged by job prospects, he is cheered on by his loving wife, Jasmine. Meanwhile, Kirk, a handsome ladies' man, tries to keep his marriage a secret from Charlene who is pregnant with his first child. Life seems perfect for Melvin and his family after he finds a job. But life for Kirk sours after his wife, Melissa, finds out that he has had a baby by Charlene. Charlene moves on with her life, including returning to work as a stripper. Kirk's insatiable needs and jealousy bring about a series of events that threatens the lives and livelihoods of him, Charlene, Jasmine, Melissa, and Melvin. This poignant drama takes viewers on an emotional ride wondering if redemption is possible, if the past always catches the sinner, and if starting over is an every-day dilemma.
