HELLCAB is a seventy-minute collection of scenes from a day in the life
of a Chicago cabbie. Beginning with a 6:30 a.m. trip by a born-again
couple…the cabbie's long day's journey proceeds with fares from,
among many others, a dangerous trio of druggies, a piggish mini-capitalist,
a benumbed rape victim, an argumentative pair of fellow cabbies, a drunken
woman on welfare, a smug lawyer, a randy couple on the way to a motel,
and two boisterous New Yorkers out on the town. Alternately frightening,
hilarious and poignant, these sharply etched blackouts and cameos…are
capped by a stunning and very touching final scene.
