SMILES Part 1

                            What if Grunge Music was a comic book? Enter SMILES. A Neo Noir Crime Story about the different stages, one has to go through, dealing with the loss of a loved one. It's about the anger and powerlessness you feel, when you just want to go back and make things right. The guilt you feel, knowing you can never make up for your mistakes. The ever consuming urge to change the unchangeable, to tear open the hands of fate and to redeem one self from worthlessness inside. Only to learn, that all that won't bring you peace. In the end, it is about accepting the past and embracing the future. It's about learning to open up to the friends around you and accepting the help and love, that we all deserve. And in the process, making way for a better and brighter tomorrow for everyone. That is the core message of SMILES, a four part miniseries about Milo Caine, aka SMILES, a once normal young man, who becomes a force of vengeance after his girlfriend Sarah, a young police officer, gets killed in an ill-fated drug deal. Haunted by the ghost of his lost lover, he reluctantly honors her dream of helping to make the city's streets a safer place for everyone, or at least he tries.
