A darkly comedic mystery about obsessive love and creative paralysis, where a graphic novelist's search for his vanished Argentine lover spirals into increasingly surreal and violent territory.

Dean has been stumped for some time in his attempt to produce a follow-up to "I was a Teenage Speed Freak," his incredibly successful graphic novel. His fans expect great things from him and his editor, Louise, is hounding him. Instead of working, however, Dean spends his time searching for his Argentine lover Pablo, who went out one night for cigarettes and never came back.
