In this first-of-its-kind crossover comedy, director Ben Popik (of famed sketch comedy group Olde English) brings together five comedy writers, and surprises them with a challenge: to each write fifteen pages of a movie, having read only the previous five pages of the script. They agree with one stipulation: if they write the movie, he has to make it.
It's a comedy, a love story, a psycho-sexual thriller, and a supernatural adventure all in one. Meanwhile, documentary footage of the writing process provides an inside look into the often-hilarious creative process, as well as the group dynamics that make collaboration between friends difficult. The result is a movie that is groundbreaking in format, emotionally resonant, and consistently laugh-out-loud funny.
