Synopsis

A perpetual daydreamer. A dangerous romance.

A fantasy? A nightmare? Or a new beginning?

 

When things seem to be going better than usual, you’d better make sure you aren’t dreaming.

 

In the spirit of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, ALBERT is an obsessive daydreamer fantasizing about wild adventures and saving beautiful women in distress. In reality, Albert is a computer nerd going nowhere slowly. He has one friend, no girl and a job he hates. Then he suddenly finds himself dating JEANIE, the girl of his dreams.

Albert finds that even love comes with a few problems. Jeanie has a gambling problem and is in debt to her gangster bookie. Albert surprises himself with his ability to hold his own in this new underworld, while staying one step ahead of the bookie.

There’s just one thing that keeps nagging at Albert: He isn't positive if this entire situation is real or a product of his overheated imagination.
