Synopsis

Lovelorn independent filmmaker Alex (Alex Karpovsky) gets caught in a bizarre love triangle involving his best friend (Onur Tukel) and an obsessed fan (Jennifer Prediger) after hitting the road to promote his latest film. Writer/director/star Alex Karpovsky, a familiar face to indie filmgoers, reveals his sterling comic chops in this close-to-the-bone comedy. Teasing the line between fiction and reality, he plays an indie filmmaker named Alex Karpovsky who, dumped by a longtime girlfriend fed up with his refusal to marry, takes to the road with a reluctant old pal for a misbegotten mini tour screening his movie on college campuses and independent cinemas. Pursued by an overly ardent groupie and his own demons, he sinks deeper into a swamp of humiliations. Keeping a deftly-judged distance between himself and “himself,” Karpovsky pulls hilarity out of personal pain.
