Breakfast of Champions
“In a world gone mad, you can trust Dwayne Hoover.”
ComedyDrama
A millionaire car salesman who runs the biggest dealership in Midland City, Dwayne Hoover is a celebrity, loved and trusted by everyone. Then one day, he wakes up and realizes that his life is a total mess! But between the headaches posed by his pill-popping wife, a mistress who won't leave him alone, and a cross-dressing sales manager, Dwayne has picked a bad week for a midlife crisis.
VIBE
A midlife crisis spirals into existential absurdity. It's a darkly funny, cynical look at the American dream gone sour, filled with bizarre characters and philosophical musings that feel both profound and utterly ridiculous.
