The Soloist
Steve Lopez, a columnist of Los Angeles Times, meets a homeless person named Nathaniel Anthony Ayers,
who is a great musician, but suffers from paranoid schizophrenia. Lopez is moved by the skills of this homeless musician, to be able to write a story of a man who plays the violin with such passion that he is transported into his own little world. Lopez starts to find information
about Nathaniel getting good results, and so he is able to write the story. The
story is out for the people and Lopez start to receive offers from people that
would like to donate violins for Nathaniel. At the same time, Lopez is looking
for a safe place for the musician, and he finds Lamp Community. Nathaniel refuses
to go there, and the writer takes all the instruments he receives to the center
to motivate the musician to assist to the Lamp Community. The love for the
music makes Nathaniel plays the violin on the yard of Lamp Community.
