ABOUT THE FILM:

Richard, a failed actor, struggles to be the primary caregiver for his two small children while his wife works a demanding job as an assistant attorney general. The all-consuming needs of young children, along with the absurdities of parenting in gentrified Brooklyn, and Richard’s difficulties in reconciling his own failed ambitions, drive his journey through the tenderness, pain and confusion of raising small humans in today’s world.

ABOUT THE FILMMAKER:

Stacey Angeles is a Texas-born, New York-schooled, Emmy and DGA-nominated director. As a precocious nine-year-old, instead of writing a class assignment on Alexander Graham Bell, Stacey decided to shoot a camcorder parody of Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure to show that time travel wouldn’t have been possible without Bell’s invention. This impulse to color outside the lines has come to define her career, as she has created content for HBO, Showtime, NBC, Comedy Central, ABC, CBS, MTV, VH1, and Bravo. She is currently at The Daily Show, creating segments on anything from Switzerland’s gun culture to racism in porn.
