A frenetic absurdist comedy that treats dating as surreal nightmare, balancing romantic hope with grotesque visual gags and high-energy chaos.
Josh Greenberg is a naive romantic on a desperate quest for love. When his longtime girlfriend dumps him, Josh enters the dating scene, a nightmarish hellscape of untold horror. Despite the agony, Josh continues his search in the hopes of finding someone who will make all the misery worth it.
