Moving from the glamour and dysfunction of 70s Brooklyn, to the sybaritic materialism of the 80s to post-9/11 New York, Lot Six is a quintessentially American tale of an outsider striving to reshape himself in the funhouse mirror of American culture.
The war in Vietnam is over and Brad, an ex-serviceman, lands in L.A. to start a new life. When he winds up trashed in Connie and Linda's kitchen after a wild night of partying, the three strike a deal for an arrangement that has hilarious and devastating consequences for everyone. Inspired by 1970s sitcoms, 1950s existentialist comedy, Chekhov and Disco anthems, 3C is a terrifying yet amusing look at a culture that likes to amuse itself, even as it teeters on the brink of ruin.
