After showing dazzling promise at school but no success in Hollywood, director Dan Rittman sufered a breakdown and quit film-making
Cameraman Neil Toomie, a hilarious, irreverent lapsed Catholic, shows up five years later with a horror film project that he wants his friend to direct
Neil doesn't know that he has a brain tumour and limited time in which to rekindle the spark of old dreams. Dan doesn't realise how turning his back on his talent started a chain reaction in every aspect of his life
"A witty and rueful elegy for a generation weaned on such high idealism, learning that there are limitations to life" - New York Times
