I was fortunate enough to be sent the script. I was living in northern California on a farm and had been removed from the industry for a few months. I choose to do that and I think it’s really healthy to take a break. So yeah, I read the script and saw it was a coming-of-age tale for a young man moving from his 20s to his 30s and realising that there’s more to life than getting “off your head” every weekend. He wants more substance in his life.
