THE FILM’S SYNOPSIS:

"He’s popular at school, is a member of the University football team, and he’s got the girl. What more could a college student want? All in life is well for Barry Raymond (Jeb Phillips) until one simple day turns into a living nightmare. Barry suddenly contracts a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, witnessing the murder of two innocent men and the kidnapping of fellow student Andrea (Sarah McCafferty) by the drug-induced psychopath Ben (Brian Tarter). In his impulsive attempt to free Andrea from her distress, Barry realizes that only one thing remains unconditionally stable in his life And All Other Things just don’t matter. This inventive storyline is a fusion of brilliantly articulated plot contrivances that symphonize at the conclusion of the film."
