The Color Wheel
An objectionable comedy about disappointment and forgiveness.
A caustic, character-driven road comedy about sibling friction and disappointment that mines awkwardness and regret for both humor and emotional truth.
JR, an aspiring news-anchor, forces her younger brother Colin to embark on a road trip to move her belongings out of her professor-turned-lover’s place. Traveling through New England, they uncomfortably run into old school-mates or revisit familial history from which they have long since diverged.
