Summary 880-01 Ken Cooper was a successful comedian in the 1990's, but his single-guy jokes are irrelevant twenty years later. Now he's an anxiety ridden, stay-at-home dad, clinging to a TV show dream that his breadwinner wife doesn't believe in. Tonight could be a big break for Ken - a final shot at selling his pitch. But after an epic fight with his wife, Ken is no longer welcome home. Their clash alters everything, on stage and off. Ken is crushed, with nowhere to turn, until he meets Holly; a bright, charismatic comedienne, who lures him out of his shell and into her bizarre world. Their very real connection leads to a somewhat surreal, unforgettable and possibly unforgivable night. Nominated for the SXSW Grand Jury Award for Narrative Feature at the SXSW Film Festival
