The Trouble with Bliss

A comedy/drama about 35-year-old Morris Bliss, who is clamped in the jaws of New York City inertia: he wants to travel but has no money; he needs a job but has no prospects; he still shares an apartment with his widowed father; and, perhaps worst of all, the premature death of his mother still lingers and has left him emotionally walled-up. When he finds himself wrapped up in an awkward relationship with the sexually-precocious 18-year-old daughter of a former classmate, Morris quickly discovers his static life unraveling and opening up in ways that are long overdue.
