Factotum
U.S., 2006, 94 Minutes
Based on the acclaimed second novel by Charles Bukowski, Factotum stars Matt Dillon as Bukowski’s alter-ego Henry Chinaski - a self-destructive, self-proclaimed writer who mostly works menial jobs and quests for booze and women. When he falls for Jan (Lili Taylor), redemption could be near. With exceptional performances that capture the destructive line between life and art, Factotum is the story of a writer and man living on the edge, finding poetry in pleasure and pain.

Beer provided by Stella Artois®. Rum provided by Pampero.
