Party Boy

Marco is stressed. On one hand, he's a cook in a progressive city bar, a married father of three, doing all he can to raise his boys right. On the other (slightly burnt) hand, his life is chaos. Every day seems full of cruel and unusual obstacles, from temperamental arancini balls to a car breakdown at the worst possible time. Painkillers and booze can only do so much to protect him from the fallout of his adolescence -the bullying, the fear, the things that were done to him and the things he did.

Now his fiftieth birthday is approaching, and all the ghosts of his life are invited to the party. It feels like his last chance, though he isn't sure for what.
