A man with little passion for either his job or his wife gets a wake-up call in this independently produced romantic comedy.
Frank Whaley plays Alan, an L.A.-based advertising executive currently being wooed by a tech firm in Seattle. He's about to move himself and his significant other (
Dawn Eason) to the rainier climate when, upon returning from the interview, he finds she's left him for another man (
Adam Baldwin, at that). Uncertain of anything anymore, Alan tries to find solace in friends and family, turning to his longtime friend Marissa (
Annabeth Gish) for support; she in turn is having her own troubles with her husband, Jack (
Alex Hyde-White). Hitting the singles bars to find a new love, Alan is slow to realize that the "right girl" may be right in front of him. Actor-turned-director
