Synopsis
Après la mort du comique américain le plus célèbre et le plus controversé des années 60, un intervieweur recueille les témoignages de ses proches et tente de retracer sa vie… En écumant les cabarets, Lenny Bruce rencontre Honey, une stripteaseuse qui devient sa compagne. Ensemble, ils créent un duo qui flirte avec le politiquement incorrect, et Lenny devient un provocateur admiré pour ses saillies cinglantes contre la société américaine bien-pensante…
