Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets

We immerse ourselves in a microcosm that might well be found in many places in the world but that nobody likes to look at too closely. A portrait of the lives of a disparate group of patrons and employees at an American watering hole today. The regulars meet one last time to raise a glass together and to get drunk. Two cameras document the action. At least that's what it seems. But the bar is not in Vegas, it is not closing, and this film is not a documentary - at least not in the strict sense.
