In the wake of September 11th, a man who grew up with his mother in Eastern European brothels comes to New York City searching for an adventure, identity, and home. The US of A has other plans for him, though; it will give him what he wants for a price. A series of imposed quests drives our beleaguered hero through America's dark heart from New York to Boston to a Walmart on the outskirts of Atlanta where he finds and spreads damnation and salvation while working the night shift.
