Synopsis
In a world where moral corruption and success go hand in hand, James is out of his element. He's unpopular, whiny, not to mention a mime. He longs for a life of reckless abandon, much like that of his unscrupulous roommate Frank: a murderer, thief, and professional poet--who is loved by all. With Frank as his mentor, James embarks on a quest for self-fullfillment, pursuing wealth (by robbing a mini-golf), love (from a nun named Betsy) and fame (by becoming a new messiah).
