Living in Oblivion
“Nick is about to discover the first rule of filmmaking: if at first you don't succeed... PANIC!”
Comedy
Low-budget independent filmmaker Nick Reve tries to keep everything together as his production is plagued with an insecure actress, a megalomaniac star, a pretentious beret-wearing director of photography, and lousy catering.
VIBE
A chaotic, laugh-out-loud descent into the madness of indie filmmaking. It's a meta-comedy that perfectly captures the stress and absurdity of trying to make art amidst utter disaster. Pure, unadulterated, hilarious mayhem.
