Sophie Goodhart (“My Blind Brother”) wrote the script and will direct. The film is about an over-scheduled and over-burdened suburban couple who go to great lengths to try to recapture the fun of their youth.

Safehouse Pictures’ Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell are producing. Matt Schwartz and Douglas Banker are executive producing. Sam Brown is overseeing for STX along with Drew Simon and Jeannette Francis.
