description: The co-owners of a burgeoning startup company called Automatoed, Chad and Marcella, are tirelessly scheming toward getting their veggie-burger-driverless-car delivery chain to turn a reliable profit. Then, one day, Chad presents a novel idea: to sell the rights to produce a queer reality TV show in their soon-to-open main office. Flash forward to sales manager Taylor watching as their boss introduces the idea to his group of five employees. While the documentary team schemes to create more drama by instigating romance between the coworkers, sparks fly in all of the unexpected places—including on opposite sides of the lens. The camera operator, Terry, tracks the surprising events with both her work camera and her personal tape recorder as tensions escalate toward the year-end company retreat. But when Chad lets the secret of the show’s transformed romantic premise slip, Terry must scramble to salvage the story for herself and her lover.
