Jeff is the idea man for Blam Co's line of useless but enormously popular As-Seen-On-TV products, but he has a nagging feeling that his ingenuity is being compromised for a cash grab. Can he overcome soulless coworkers, awkward romantic entanglements, manic fans, and his own sense of self-importance to avoid going down in history as the world's worst inventor?
The film features a wide array of local talent and stars local actors including Jeff Murdoch (Second City, IO Chicago, The Geek Show), Katie O’Brien (IO Chicago, The Katydids, Love, Loss, and What I Wore), and Tim Heurlin (The Annoyance Theatre, Chicago Sketchfest). Director Avella is also involved in the comedy scene with festival stalwart Teenager of the Year.
