Garage is a 2007 Irish film directed by Lenny Abrahamson and written by Mark O'Halloran, the same team behind Adam & Paul.
The film tells the story of a lonely petrol station attendant and how he slowly begins to come out of his shell.
Josie (Pat Shortt) is a good-natured man with learning difficulties who lives and works at a garage in a small rural Irish village.
The owner, Mr. Gallagher is a former schoolmate who is not interested in the garage and is only waiting for the right offer from developers so he can sell.
For Josie, one day rolls into another with nothing but his menial job and a few pints in the local pub, even though the regulars mock him and his ways.
One day his boss hires his girlfriend's 15-year-old son, David (Conor Ryan) to help Josie.
Slowly Josie connects with David as they endure the slow and menial pace of the garage.
The next day, the local Garda come to the garage and take Josie to the police station because there has been "a complaint".
After an interview with a sympathetic officer, Josie explains it was just a bit of "craic" and "pure innocent".
Josie then takes off his well-polished shoes and socks before neatly placing his garage cap on them.
