Synopsis

Simon (Tristan Turner) is an early 30s filmmaker living in New York City with his best friend and roommate, Bruce (Anthony Oberbeck), who works for an airline. As Bruce’s dedicated “travel companion,” he gets to fly for free on standby anytime he wants — an incredible asset for his unfinished, sprawling documentary about humanity.

As his roommate’s budding relationship gets more serious with Beatrice (Naomi Asa), Simon begins to fear losing his coveted travel perks. With only two months left until Bruce can change the recipient of his flight benefits, Simon begins to compromise his friendship in his pursuit of retaining the free flights.

Producer & Co-writer Weston Auburn will join us for a live, in-person Q&A following the Friday, May 29 screening.
