So Long, Stooge
Lambert, a man worn out by life, works the graveyard shift at a gas station, leading a solitary existence filled with silence and alcohol. Bensoussan, who grew up in foster care and now deals drugs for a bar owner named Rashid, visits the station in search of a spark plug for a stolen Moped. An unexpected bond forms between him and Lambert, and a few days later, they meet for a drink. Bensoussan’s reckless behavior leads him to repeatedly steal Rashid’s prized motorcycle, making him dispensable. Determined to avenge Bensoussan, Lambert seeks out Lola, a punk who was acquainted with him. With unexpected determination, Lola breaks through Lambert’s emotional barriers, prompting him to open up about his past and rediscover a zest for life.
