Description:
In the vibrant yet gritty backdrop of Gotham City during the 1980s, we follow the downward spiral of a once-aspiring stand-up comedian. As his career in comedy takes a turn for the worse, his mental state deteriorates, pushing him to the edge and ultimately leading him into the criminal underworld. What unfolds is an intense and unsettling narrative as our protagonist, now a psychopathic figure of infamy, embarks on a journey through crime, chaos, and unyielding madness. The film masterfully explores themes of ambition, loss, and the destructive consequences when human frailty meets desperation in an urban landscape where darkness seems to prevail.
