Dos hermanos a los que separó una tragedia familiar, cuando eran niños, siguen sufriendo hoy las secuelas y los traumas de una infancia triste y oscura: la vida de Nick gira en torno al alcohol y a la violencia; su hermano pequeño es padre soltero y se esfuerza todo lo posible para proporcionarle a su hijo una vida mejor.
Alex Klein is a bankrupt real estate executive whose life is on a collision course. Not only do the market and his career look like a Trabant from before the fall of the Berlin Wall, but he has a wife who is thriving in success; a family whose habits are driving him insane; clients with bad taste and too much money. Not to mention 14-year-old baristas who think they know the difference between highland coffee beans, picked by virgins at midnight and the coffee from the local supermarket. So there's a lot getting on his nerves, so much so, that one day, when things become real serious, he can only weather the storm in his own repelling way.
