SYNOPSIS
New York City sanitation workers Danny and Marlowe have nothing in common except a 20-ton garbage truck. Thrown together by the job, they spend their shifts bickering, one-upping each other, and practicing the secret art of "mongo" — hunting for treasure in the trash. But as their lives become increasingly entwined, they learn that some things are easier to toss than others. An unconventional buddy comedy in a garbage truck. TIME & PLACE New York City. 2019. Winter. CHARACTERS MARLOWE: f, 40. Black. In another life: nurturing, charismatic, direct. Luminous. In this life: just trying to get through the day. DANNY: m, 45. White. Mansplaining, dad jokes, and machismo thinly mask a profound desire to love and be loved. |
