I'M HAPPY, I PROMISE

Mimi Cave

A series of phone calls between Parker and his friends narrate Parker's mission to find true happiness through superficial obsessions.

I saw this film in March and have been counting down the days until I could share it with an audience. Parker Seamen’s sharp-witted script and Mimi Cave’s playful direction coalesce to create a truly original tone which manages to go deep while exploring frivolity. To me, it’s a perfect comedy… I promise. — Erin (Artistic Director)
