Synopsis
Jacques (Brian Cox) is the owner of a seedy New York bar frequented
by an assortment of hardened regulars. Jacques is resolutely
drinking and smoking himself to death. Renowned for his bad tempered
outbursts, he befriend a homeless younger man, Lucas (Paul Dano) who
has virtually given up on his life already.
Seeing Lucas as a man who can keep his legacy alive, Jacques show
him the ropes and rules of his bar, which Lucas quickly learns: no
new customers, no fraternizing with customers and, absolutely no
women.
However their friendship is put to the test when the distraught and
beautiful April (Isild Le Besco) shows up at the bar seeking
shelter, and Lucas insists they help her out.
