Aaron (Patrick Brice) gets hired to do a day of videography for Josef (Mark Duplass), who has terminal cancer and wants to record a video diary for his unborn son. As the day progresses, Aaron gets more and more uncomfortable with Josef's overly affectionate behavior, weirdly intimate questions, and sudden attempts to startle and scare.
This is just a horrible blind date. If you are a woman attracted to straight guys, you have likely had a fairly similar experience at some point in your life of a dude being overly familiar, unwilling to accept the word "no," and disrespecting your boundaries while claiming everything is a joke. If you were very, very unlucky (a little more than 1 in 100,000), it ended exactly like this. So this movie will feel exhausting. If you are a dude, this is what you look like when you do this shit. Stop. No one likes it.
It's not found footage, technically, but there is a lot of shaky-cam and we all know how I feel about that. Duplass and Brice are solid performers; I just didn't care for this at all. It's streaming on Netflix.
