The Future

What would you do if The Future was now?

Sophie and Jason are strange the way all couples are strange when they’re alone. They live in a small Los Angeles apartment, have jobs they hate, and in one month they’ll adopt a stray cat named Paw Paw. Like a newborn baby, he’ll need around-theclock care – he may die in six months, or it may take five years. Despite their good intentions, Sophie and Jason are terrified of their looming loss of freedom. So with just one month left, they quit their jobs, and the internet, to pursue their dreams – Sophie wants to create a dance, Jason wants simply to be guided by fate. But as the month slips away, Sophie becomes increasingly, humiliatingly paralysed. In a moment of desperation, she calls a stranger, Marshall – a square, 50-year-old man. In his suburban world she doesn’t have to be herself; as long she stays there, she’ll never have to try (and fail) again. Living in two terrifyingly vacant and different realities, Sophie and Jason must reunite with time, space and their own souls in order to come home.
