Fresh out of college and stuck at his New Jersey home without a clear path forward, 22-year-old Andrew begins working as a party starter for bar/bat mitzvahs—where he strikes up a unique friendship with a young mom and her teenage daughter.

Carl's Motel is set over the course of 15 minutes in a motel room where Jack grapples with the choices he has made and is forced to come to terms with his own personal turmoil. This film is inspired by Sam Shepard's Coalinga 1/2 way.
