Oji has long given up on his past as the guitarist for the heavy metal band Black Heaven, and now toils in a thankless office job. But then a mysterious woman visits him and urges him to take up music once more, because amazingly only the sound of his guitar can stop a group of evil alien conquerors. THE LEGEND OF BLACK HEAVEN combines music, comedy, and science fiction with an emphasis on character interaction rather than just action. It tackles mature issues like the compromising of one's dreams and the navigation through a society that promises riches and fame but rarely delivers either. Featuring music by Thin Lizzy and Whitesnake guitarist John Sykes, BLACK HEAVEN uses an improbable premise to explore complex issues of disillusionment and social hypocrisy with a comedic touch.
