Private Project

Still Trying

Romantic dramedy about toxic relationships and overcoming anxiety in NYC.
Rebecca Colson is unlucky in love, to say the least. Balancing a long-distance ex-boyfriend, a current on-again-off-again something-or-other (FWB, FB, BF?! who knows), a self-absorbed "best" friend, and a new day job, all while struggling to secure legitimate acting opportunities and learning to ride a bike as an adult in the city that never sleeps leads to a modern, awkward, anxious romance you'll never forget.
