A pocket-picking hustler preys on a buffoon - predictable and dreary.


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Paul’s dad unexpectedly picks him up from work. And then a hooker. After dropping them off at a seedy roadside motel, Paul’s father hands him two hundred dollars and that he mustn’t come out until he’s a man. These are just a few of the bizarre events that Paul recounts to Marco, a seductive hustler he meets in a dicey bar on a hidden street underneath New York City’s infamous Port Authority Bus Terminal, also known as ‘Area X’.
