Synopsis

A rundown establishment, a retro diner, lies in the middle of nowhere on the MOTORWAY. It's our hero's, Jimmy's, only legacy and connection to his deceased parents. It's where he lived his whole life. Even when the new MOTORWAY blocked access to the diner, Jimmy preferred to stay, holding on to the memories of his family and providing a job to three incompetent but deep-down good-hearted employees: Mara, the rebellious till girl; Nicko, the grumpy handyman who struggles to complete his pension plan; and Abi, a Nigerian immigrant who works there as the cook.
