Distractions is a wickedly funny and boldly original comedy unlike any other. The film consists of ten stories, each featuring a world that has somehow slipped out of balance. It surprises audiences and finds humor even in life's darker twists and fates.
What happens when the matriarch of an aristocratic family forgets all sense of propriety in the final moments of her life? How do you hold a funeral for an imaginary friend? Can an IT geek's self-confidence survive an encounter with a hyper-masculine lumberjack? And what happens during an apartment viewing when the prospective buyer starts hearing disturbing voices?.
