Recently widowed Jen meets perpetually awkward Elliot at a restaurant for their first date. Things do not go well. How can two people relate to one another when the technology we use to communicate keeps getting in the way? And how can we move forward with life when a recent death remains ever present? After an Earlier Incident is a comedy about trying to live and love when tragedy lies just below the surface.
CAST
Caryn Osofsky and Nick Walther
