| In the dank basement of a flower shop, when a college dropout meets a morbidly obese woman twice his age, chaos ensues. What follows is a beautiful and troubling romance in which the couple plots to unravel the tightly wound lives of all those around them. A biting, comic tale of obsession and repression, abstinence and consumption, expression and repression. | |||||
