AdventureDrama

Simon (Billy Harvey) and Darin "the Barbarian" (Jeff Palmiotti) are ESL teachers editing an upstart lit-zine. After 3 years in Taiwan, Simon questions if he'll ever return to the US. The right mix of ennui and a skewed sense of duty propel them on a quixotic road trip where Simon, a loner by nature, falls for Nikita (Leo Lim), who joins their quest after getting them out of an international bind.
