A witty, character-driven romantic comedy about two neurotic misfits finding unexpected connection through conversation and vulnerability rather than conventional romance.

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.
