The Delicate Art of Parking is an absurd comedy about a parking enforcement officer who, despite constant abuse from the public, finds truth, honour and serenity in the act of ticketing. His religious devotion to the work is challenged however, when his best friend and mentor is run down by an angry motorist and knocked into a deep coma.
