He might be gay. She might not care.

ComedyRomance

Todd is a hyper-articulate, obsessive compulsive gay twentysomething whose fear of dying alone leads him to a baffling conclusion: he might not be gay after all. When he meets Rory, a whip-smart struggling actress with her own set of insecurities, the two forge a relationship that’s all talk and no sex.

VIBE

A neurotic, dialogue-heavy indie comedy that feels like a therapy session disguised as a rom-com. It’s a charmingly awkward exploration of modern love, identity, and the messy, often hilarious, search for connection.
