An improvised-dialogue romantic dramedy - in the spirit of BEFORE SUNRISE and HUMPDAY - STATUS PENDING is the story of a couple struggling to live up to the lifestyle standards and expectations social media has set for them.
After six months with her Tinder guy, an indecisive millennial, who struggles with expectations created by social media, must decide today: either travel the world on a last-minute trip, or find “stability” – settle into a career and a relationship.
