Filmmaker Q&A expected after the screening.
On the night of his first movie premiere, hosted at Chicago’s storied Music Box Theater, Jacob Sanders is hounded by mounting issues and paranoid delusions appearing on the screen. Disaster looms at every turn—his family argues, audience members complain, the popcorn machine breaks, and the movie file doesn’t work. All of these problems are exacerbated by the rumored arrival of a famous actor. Jacob struggles to overcome disaster, all while fending off criticisms, expectations, and disturbing figments of his imagination.
