Plot Summary

Alex, 43, has few responsibilities. He works as a tow-truck driver in the car-repair garage his mother Antoinette runs with an iron first. She hopes he will someday take over the business, but he consistently proves that he's not up to the task. One day, he assists a woman whose car broke down and ends up spending the night at her place. The next morning, she is nowhere to be found, and Alex finds himself alone--with three kids.
