Synopsis

Personal trainers, personal shoppers and borderline personality disorders fill the daily void of Thom Thompson III, a young, rising sitcom star whose pampered Hollywood existence has become even more two-dimensional than the nihilistic character he portrays on TV. When Thom's estranged twin shows up on set and begins impersonating him (after a lengthy hibernation shooting gay porn), Thom's keen sense of denial instinctively seeks refuge in crystal meth. But a voicemail from his father, whom his valium-popping mother "accidentally" murdered decades ago, pushes an already fragile Thom over the edge.
