\u201cRob\u2019s hilarious first feature builds on the inventive premise by showcasing dual performances from the talented cast,\u201d said Tony Piantedosi<\/strong>, Vice President of Acquisitions at Gravitas Ventures<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Resistant to change, Todd (Jesse Rosen<\/strong>) finds himself at a crossroads when his girlfriend Lucy (Anna Rizzo<\/strong>) is offered a promotion on the other side of the country. Before he can decide whether to stay or go, Todd\u2019s evil twin from a parallel universe arrives to take his place, and Todd must face the prospect of a world without Lucy. With the reluctant help of Lucy\u2019s brother, Dave (Sean Carmichael<\/strong>), Lucy and Todd must confront the barriers to their relationship, their perception of self, and the laws of the universe itself to distinguish the wrong Todd from the right one.<\/p>\n
