Description

Alan is a failing agent at a barely solvent talent agency. He's under investigation for sexual harassment, his flight attendant wife might be sleeping with a small-town crossing guard, and he's tens of thousands of dollars in debt––all from strippers and “tantric massages.” Something's gotta give. Approaching 40 and inspired by a screaming self-help guru who instructs him to stop being such a pussy, Alan takes on the guru's motto––Give Zero Fucks––in hopes of turning his life around. He embarks on a misguided journey through faux spirituality, sexual obsession, jungle shamanism, life-coaching, and Jewish mishegas, trying to dig himself out of his self-inflicted mess.

 He has long been deeply involved in nonprofit projects around the world, working to provide prenatal care for rural women in southern Haiti, English language instruction to adults in Port-au-Prince, as well as projects working with children and teens in Guatemala, Kolkata India, and Brooklyn.
