Christmas Eve at Friend in Need, a nonprofit suicide hotline, is about to go from grim to downright disastrous for employees Urch and Jean when absolute insanity breaks loose. It begins when Danny, a homeless friend of Jean’s, seeks refuge in their offices while being pursued by gun lobbyists for the crime of surviving a gunshot wound to the head—which, apparently, is bad for business. Things take an even darker turn when Danny’s roommate/lover, Jacobo, bursts in to finish the job. Now Danny, Urch, Jean, and Zaza—who simply wanted to feel a little less lonely on Christmas and got far more than she bargained for—must figure out how to survive the night while making sure the job gets done. Wacky, outrageous, and wildly unpredictable, this dark comedy delivers nonstop holiday insanity!
