Brett Butler + Jason Butler (Dirs), 88 minutes, Canada, Western New York Premiere

Co-directors Brett Butler + Jason Butler in attendance.

Blake and his girlfriend, May, host a dinner party at Blake's parents home for their closest friends, including Blake's oldest friend, Isaac. The dinner party is actually a set up for a life intervention for Isaac, where the friend group tells him all the reasons he has become a burden to them and society in general, and that he should really just kill himself already. This dark comedy is a razor sharp satire on cancel culture and the me generation in general.
