This bundle of fun narrative shorts is overflowing with charm, sincerity, and personality, and it offers empathetic and relatable stories with which we can all identify as humans living in this crazy world. On January 13, 2018, middle aged couple Larry and Penny are enjoying a relaxing vacation in Hawaii when their phones light up with a potentially world-ending message in 40 Minutes Over Maui. Amelie feels out of place when her favorite cousins brings a lover to their family reunion for the first time in Little Waves. Little Grey Bubbles offers a poignant interpretation of internet friendships, when Kim attends the funeral of her best friend Marlon—a man she’s never met. Revel in some drunken family drama in Stepdaddy. And in Westfalia, a couple embarks on an epic road trip in an attempt to gain more followers after their Instagram rivals' fame explodes overnight.
On family reunion day, Amelie feels out of place and lonely as her favorite cousin brings a lover over for the first time. Noticing their young passionate love, she allows her own fantasies to run wild, although some sensations are a lot more powerful than she thought.
