The Story

Robert Martini is bored with his life and going through a mid-life crisis. His safety valve is a park bench where he has breakfast every morning between eight and eight-thirty am. Rachel is a bum who happens to show up on the bench next to his one morning. they have nothing in common; not the way they look, speak or think.  A song will seal their fate. Forced to share a limited space, they fight for their territory. In the process, they realize that they are driven by the same sense of rebellion and need to survive. Little by little, they share their fears and secrets, recover their dignity and give each other the strength to face their own lives.

What happens next? That is the story…
