In The wedding pool, three friends in unsatisfactory jobs place a bet on who will marry first. They open a joint account to which they each contribute $50 a month, the final sum to be collected by the first to tie the knot. But when one starts dating the bank teller who opens their account, the friends realize much more is at stake and are forced to consider their individual fears and failings.

In Lena's car, a woman whose marriage has stalled reflects on how it got to that point. Harkening back to her youth, she attempts to figure out why she ended up in a disintegrating relationship and just when her life became like everyone else's.

Hippies and Bolsheviks, set in 1970s British Columbia, is a comedy based on the big ideas of the long-haired revolution. Star stumbles home from a Led Zeppelin concert with a draft dodger. A bizarre love triangle develops the next morning as Allan, a defector from the same commune Star fled, shows up on her doorstep.
