Description

Content to remain in a permanent adolescence, 28-year-old Megan clings to her job as a sign flipper for her father’s accounting company as her high school friends get married and advance their careers. When her high school boyfriend proposes unexpectedly, Megan panics and forgoes attending a professional-development retreat to hide, at least temporarily, at the home of her new 16-year-old friend, Annika, and her attractive, single dad.

Lynn Shelton, whose unique directorial voice created such crowd pleasers as Your Sister's Sister and Humpday, crafts a warm and funny coming-of-age story about three people who find their lives intertwined in sudden, unexpected ways as they try to make their way in the imperfect reality of modern-day life.

While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications.
