"A man is murdered in his apartment," state press notes. "An unseen interviewer attempts to piece together the elements of this person's life. To uncover the details that make up the character of a human being. How do we effect the people with whom we come in contact on a daily basis. Even our neighbors don't really know who we are."Hoffman has written and will perform in Last Fare, considered "part mystery and party psychological examination," and will feature music by Branford Marsalis.
