It
happens. You meet someone at the bar, one thing leads to another, and
the next thing you know you're waking up wondering (and potentially
regretting) exactly what took place the night before. Such is the case
for Fred, who starts to panic when his free-spirited one night stand,
Mindy, informs him that she's not on birth control; but for some reason
isn't too concerned. Determined not to become a father, Fred spends
theday with Mindy under the guise of pursuing a serious relationship
to make sure she takes both doses (taken 12 hours apart) of the morning-after
pill.
The
result is an all-day adventure filled with socially awkward situations
and untimely roadblocks as Fred struggles to preserve his New York City
world. With a resolution finally in sight, the no-boundaries Mindy starts
to grow on the overly anxious Fred, forcing him to make a decision that
will change the rest of his life.
A
portrait of young singles in New York City, The Pill examines the immediate
ramifications of casual
dating in a poignantly funny, fresh, and honest fashion.
