Synopsis

Paulie “The Pug” is a Coney Island dreamer...just one MMA fight away from the big time.

If only he could keep his wife from bedding her ex-husband, his brother-in-law from going to the slammer, and his best friend from taking a bite out of his neck, he'd be on top of the world.

A raucous, irreverent, action-packed comedy full of weak wrists and strong hearts, Happy in the Poorhouse is an unsanitized story of love, sex, and chasing after dreams even when you've got a black eye and a broken spirit.
