In Tree Hill, North Carolina two half brothers share a last name and nothing else. Brooding, blue-collar Lucas is a talented street-side basketball player, but his skills are appreciated only by his friends at the river court. Popular, affluent Nathan basks in the hero-worship of the town, as the star of his high school team. And both boys are the son of former college ball player Dan Scott whose long ago choice to abandon Lucas and his mother Karen, will haunt him long into his life with wife Deb and their son Nathan.

Art of Suicide is the story of the Whitehall loft, home and hang-out to a band of bohemians and their dreams. This eclectic group of young, struggling artists struggle for success and test how far they're willing to go and get it. It's about the relative strength and delicacy of relationships -- how far they bend, and how far they should be bent.
