Selective Listening (2014)

HARRISON, a nice guy with a history of schizophrenia battles the diverse and unpredictable voices he hears, a judgmental society and the hazards of social media as he attempts to make a new friend. In order to better manage the voices, he personifies them within his childhood toys: SMILING HERBERT contains the voice of rage; MOLLY, the voice of paranoia; BEAN represents irrepressible sexual thoughts; CONRAD speaks the bare facts; MARROW provides a constant, indecipherable mumble and MOUSEY is the sound of panic. When Harrison happens upon the philanthropic online posts of the beautiful social media addict AMBER and she blindly accepts his "chum request", Harrison sees this as the beginning of a beautiful friendship. But, is it?
