New movie pitch.

This is one those inspiring, rising to prominence movies.

A female musician from the future who no one will give a chance to, finds a time machine and goes to 'present day' earth (2000ish/modern). First she is living off the streets, still trying to make her break. Then a disaster happens, this could be 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina. She then realizes that she knew that it would happen. She gets this idea and starts writing songs, about the future, but in such a way that people don't really know that its about the future, just a very slight hint. She finally gets play at a small club, where an A&R guy from some record label hears her (you can sell this as ad space to some record label!) and really enjoys her sound. After some hard pushing from her manager/friend she signed with the label.

At first people are find her wardrobe very strange as it is from the distance future, but she adjusts while finding a love interest. After a concert her bandmates introduce her to drugs (heroin, weed, or cocaine, whatever is pg-13), against her love interest's interest, she takes them, only to find that they have no effect on her, her bandmates, who do not know she is from the future are stunned at the shear amount of drugs she has taken. This is because her body has evolved to a point where today's are far too weak for anyone in the future.

She discovers that she can not go back to her future, homesick she starts singing in her future dialect. Her record label discovers this days before its release, and fire her for some stipulation in her contract. At this point she is depressed, her warnings through her songs go unnoticed and events are still happening. Through some persuasion of her love interest she plays a show at the first club. Many fans show up, then she realizes that it isn't about the messages in her music, it is just about the music. Through use of narration she realizes that she can not control the outcome of the actions of individuals, they are independent, the only thing she can control is to bring pleasure to listeners through her music, and thus finds peace.
