Cinque ragazzi di Baltimora hanno l'abitudine di ritrovarsi periodicamente a cena e di combinare insieme degli scherzi. Uno di loro, Boogie, è nei guai a causa della sua passione per le scommesse: deve duemila dollari a un gangster e per trovarli continua a scommettere e a perdere. Gli altri hanno problemi coniugali o legati al sesso, e a ciascuno tocca qualche burla.

En Baltimore, durante el invierno de 1959, cinco veinteañeros pasan su tiempo en Diner. Allí, se refugian en los buenos momentos que han pasado juntos, tratando de eludir complicadas relaciones sentimentales, problemas de juego y matrimonios difíciles que la madurez les exige afrontar.

Magyar
Az ötvenes évek második felében még kevésbé volt nyílt a kapcsolat férfiak és nők között, mint napjaikban. A baltimore-i fiúk, Eddie, Shrevie, Boogie és a többiek bandába verődve járnak szórakozni. Élvezik egymás társaságát, naphosszat a bisztróban lógnak. Órákat képesek eltölteni a kóla mellett. Eszik a sajtburgert és a sült krumplit, szívják a cigarettát, miközben a rockzenekarokról, focicsapatokról és persze a nőkről vitáznak. Nemsokára mindegyikük elindul a maga útján. Van, aki továbbtanul, van, aki dolgozni kezd, majd családot alapítanak, és talán soha többé nem kerülnek ilyen közel egymáshoz.

1959 год. Балтимор. Шестеро закадычных друзей, проводящих дни и ночи напролет в старомодной и дешевой забегаловке небольшого городка, задушевно беседуют о «своем». Женщины, азартные игры, «соленые» анекдоты — вот далеко не полный перечень тем и откровений молодых людей, переваливших 20-летний рубеж, которым предстоит научиться справляться с проблемами взрослой жизни и попрощаться с юношеской беззаботностью.
