Overview
"A cadre of strangers pass through the Vince Lombardi Service Stop in Ridgefield, New Jersey - an eternal monument to family road trips and fast food fantasies - in search of milkshakes and immortality: the kind of enduring legacy that can only be formed through the stories they tell one another and people they pretend to become beneath the fluorescent, flickering lights of Curly Diana's Diner. Over the course of the year following the fifteenth anniversary of her son's death, Janice the Waitress mends and breaks the hearts of her customers, all while serving up the best chocolate shake this side of the New Jersey Turnpike. An anthology feature film set to the tune of a Bruce Springsteen song, I Found God at the Vince Lombardi Service Stop weaves together the doom and dreams of the people and places we just can't escape." -- Abstract
