The film is based on the 2001 novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. It tells the story of a man who works in a colonial theme park, attends sexual addiction recovery meetings, and intentionally chokes on food in upscale restaurants so his "rescuers" would give him money out of sympathy and thus cover his mother's Alzheimer's disease hospital bills.

Plot

Victor Mancini is a sex addict who works as a reenactor of life in Colonial America. He works with his best friend, Denny, who is also a reformed sex addict. To support his hospitalized mother, Ida, Victor cons others by intentionally choking at restaurants to get money from his rescuers.

Choke

by: Graduate

Leave all your clothes buried in the sand
Who knows when we'll be coming back again
Come on in, the water's getting cold
See if you sink or swim or float
When the tide came in, we tried to act surprised
What could the ocean want with the things that we left behind
Swimming back to land and I realized
It was the only time that year I felt alive
We booked a one way going overseas
Feels like I'm living someone else's dream
I tried my best to keep from turning back
I'm scared you may have been my better half
I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke
I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke
The story ends the same as it began
I never know when I'll be coming around again
Staring at the sand I realized
It was the only time that year that I felt alive
I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke
I'm on the edge about to choke
