Synopsis
From the author of As Bees in Honey Drown and The Little Dog Laughed, this delightfully au courant comedy gives us Missy, an avant-garde video artist, who entertains herself re-editing her family's home movies to unsavory effect.
Successful and happily ensconced in an affair with married businessman "Suit," Missy's love life is suddenly complicated by the appearance of "Brat," the actor/new love of her best gay friend, "Spaz."
