Car Wash
We live here a new series of powerful comedy events. Start a story with a group of friends working at Sully Boyar Car Wash in the Los Angeles Jewish neighborhood. We live from the diary of these friends when they once had all kinds of strange visitors coming to the front yard.

There's no plot as such, just a collection of gags, issues and themes...
