Existentialist low-budget comedy "about one of life's losers".

Variously labeled as a deadbeat by his ex, a failure by his mother, and a shell of himself by his best friend, Lousy Carter is falling apart, debt-ridden and cast adrift. As he interprets The Great Gatsby for an antipathetic graduate class, one of the students offers Lousy Carter one last chance at living the dream.

A tribute to Richard Linklater's Slacker made by members of the Austin Filmmakers Society.
