Biting romantic dramedy set in gritty 1989 Manhattan. A self-destructive young comedy writer falls for the girl of his dreams, only to discover that being in love kills his edge, so he’s forced to sabotage his relationship, then try to win her back. A behind-the-scenes look at shallow television during globally tumultuous times.
