A young pawnshop owner becomes obsessed with his office’s backed-up drain and the derrière of a young waitress in this daring look at the perversity and madness found within us all. “Drained” gives a refreshing Brazilian spin on the traditional literary anti-hero as he browbeats customers, alienates friends and tests the limits of the acceptable.
