In the tradition of Vittorio DeSica's 'The Bicycle Thief' and an ode to the neorealist style, 'Eggman' is the tale of an unlikely bond that develops between a hard-working Mexican immigrant (Santos) and a 12 year old inner-city black kid (James). Desperate and hungry, James' obsession for eggs leads him to Santos, a working-class man with his eye on the American dream. After their initial apprehension of each other (James steals from Santos) and despite their differing backgrounds, a relationship develops between the two which blossoms into a social statement of acceptance and compassion across all lines.
