Lazy Days Synopsis

Laurent is an addict, an addict of television, constantly passing up opportunities to go out to just sit on the sofa and gorge himself on junk foods and glue himself to the images on his TV; Laurent never goes out, leaving his social life to go down the drain and his hopes of getting a girlfriend and becoming something more than a slob out the window- soaps for him aren't just a program, they are a religion, he constantly follows the hectic lives of the characters as if it was his own. Left to nothing but his thoughts and the Sunday and day time "crap" possibly nobody in the world watches... carrying on his life Laurent seemingly has a strange stalker...the thing he stares at the most is staring back at him and behind him at every turn.

Ones an alcoholic and the other a chain smoker The two find 20 quid on the floor. The two can’t decide what to spend their money on one of them just wants to get drunk the other wants to get a decent meal and have a warm night in a hostel in hopes of finally getting on his feet and feeling some-kind of comfort. The two go off in their seperate ways with a tenner each, the smart headed one to a hostel and the drunk to an offlicence Eventually the two reunite and the drunk turns out better off coming back clean shaved and in a suit. The smart headed tramp learns the lesson that its not always best to be smart and that getting doing the bad thing can turn out good for you.
