Andrew Wilden is a lonely teenager raised in his family's video store and home schooled on a strict curriculum of VHS tapes and DVD movies. When his mother leaves and his father is hospitalized, Andrew is suddenly thrust into the complicated halls of a modern High School. Everything he knows about the world is through watching films, so he resorts to his comfort zone - using only lines from 80's teen movies like PRETTY IN PINK, BREAKFAST CLUB and FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF to communicate. The Plastics. The Jocks. The Basket cases. The Nerds. Andrew wants to experience everything. Maybe even make one or two friendships that will matter and last. Isn't that what being a teenager is all about? Isn't that what life is all about? COMING ATTRACTIONS is a tribute to the '80's and John Hughes teenage Romantic Comedy films. It's a story about love, acceptance and communication - how people need to find their own voice and write their own endings. See how many movie lines you can guess hidden throughout the story.
