It's the low-down story of Danny the Car Wiper, a hard-core junky who has just been released from an Upper West Side Manhattan jail cell, his body stinking and sweating from heroin sickness.

In search of his junk fix on an icy cold Christmas day, Danny experiences several misadventures that culminate with a revelation that even Danny could not have dreamed possible. It's a heroin fable where a junky becomes some kind of hero. The Junky's Christmas!
