Description
Cast: Daniel Zolghadri, Matthew Maher, Josh Pais
A gifted but self-absorbed teenage cartoonist bails on his comfortable suburban life to pursue his artistic passion straight into the gutter. Subletting a scary apartment in Trenton, he enters a cracked milieu of freaks and weirdos who seem ripped from the pages of his beloved underground comics. Full of memorable New Jersey misfits, this charmingly scrappy indie carries on the acerbically witty tradition of classic comix artists.
