THEODORE 'TEDDY' BLURTON
  IS A STAND-UP COMEDIAN IN EXILE...


















His audience having been taken away by the pandemic,
Teddy now lives on a river island in Vietnam.

As he ponders whether or not to restart
his career, he spends his time hellraising
with his best good comedian friend
—trolling yogaclowns & masculinity influencers—
& fishing in a coconut swamp.


His audience taken
from him by the pandemic,
Teddy now lives on a river

island in Vietnam.

As he ponders whether or not
to restart his career, he spends
his time hellraising with his best
good comedian friend,
—trolling yogaclowns &

masculinity influencers—
& fishing in a coconut swamp.
















Until he meets a blindingly beautiful woman,
and diverts his exile to follow 
Charlotte Jaeger's
work to Greece, then to Egypt.

Gradually he sees that Charlotte might not be
the kind & gentle person she at first seemed.

And when she makes jealous accusations based solely
on his social media, Teddy breaks up with her.

As Charlotte works at destroying
every aspect of his life in paradise
—& even his chances of

returning to stand-up—
Teddy struggles to figure out which sin

he's being so disproportionately punished for.
