The Story:
Meet Thomas Bardo (Stephen Rea), a sad-eyed schlump who has lost his job to downsizing and Brandi Boski (Mena Suvari) is a dreadlocked, hard-partying, overworked, nursing assistant desperate for a promotion at the retirement home where she works.
After enduring a long day of frustrations and humiliations --he's kicked out of his apartment, then brushed off by a state employment office clerk -- Tom thinks he's hit rock bottom when he's reduced to spending the night on a park bench.
Unfortunately, he winds up in the wrong place at the wrong time! Brandi after a night of drug-binging and partying, she accidentally hits Thomas with great force who gets stuck in the windshield of her car, with his legs hanging out of the window on the hood of the car.
Not wanting to call for help since she is driving under the influence, Brandi, chooses not to get Thomas medical help and instead drives home and leaves him clinging to his life in the windshield of her car. While Brandi frantically tries to decide what she is going to do.
So Brandi asks Rashid (Russell Hornsby), her drug-dealing boyfriend, to dispose of the inconvenient body. But there's a complication: The body isn't quite dead. Indeed, the longer he remains trapped in the windshield, the more time Tom has to gather strength for the slow and painful process of escape.
