Overlap

A tragic rom-com about theatre-makers thwarted by the infrastructure of the MTA, we follow two twenty-somethings as they navigate minimum wage jobs, blowjobs, mommy issues, grief, and producing theatre from beyond the grave.Maya is a self-destructive playwright hell-bent on proving something to the world around her. Daniel is an overly cautious dramaturg looking to finally break out of his self-inflicted cocoon of isolation. They're working together at the same coffee shop, and they're working together to self-produce a play. They also find themselves falling for each other. When tragedy strikes their process, that tragedy being a freak train derailment, it leaves only Daniel alive to complete their show, and only Daniel to reconcile with Maya's chain of broken relationships, including a very strained one with her estranged fundamentalist Christian mother.
