Matthew Toffolo: What is your screenplay about?
Haley Isleib: A soldier comes back from war on Mars but nothing seems quite right. She can’t find anyone she remembers–not friends or family, no one. Except this one guy from a somewhat regrettable one night stand. He’s the only one she can turn to for help fighting off the mysterious forces that pursue her as she tries to find her missing family and figure out why the world seems inside out. Also, there are a lot of robots.
