Nugget(2015)

Nugget is a dark comedy about an unlikely pair forced into close quarters. A reclusive, health-obsessed man finds himself reluctant chauffeur to his aggressively obnoxious neighbor, who needs a ride to the locksmith. What begins as a simple favor spirals into an absurd, tense journey that exposes the friction between their clashing worldviews. As the two navigate cramped car rides and awkward silences, their antagonism becomes increasingly surreal. The film mines humor from their fundamental incompatibility while exploring themes of isolation and human connection. Sharp dialogue and committed performances drive this offbeat character study that subverts typical buddy-comedy tropes. Nugget is a quirky, uncomfortable ride that finds unexpected depth in the spaces between two fundamentally incompatible people.
