When a global computer virus begins deleting all digital records, 30-something Ellie (Natalie Morales, Parks and Recreation) buys an old tape recorder and begins narrating an “analog” retrospective of her life before all of her photos, videos, and correspondence are wiped out forever. “High Fidelity” meets “Seeking a Friend For the End of the World.” Written by Erin Foley-Chan, produced by April Lamb (Gimlet's Sandra), directed and produced by Daniel Powell (Inside Amy Schumer). Also starring Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael, and Cyrina Fiallo.
Ellie looks back on her journey, figures out some things, and takes a huge leap of faith.
