Anthony’s awkwardness is the kind that results in him saying odd things at inappropriate times, which ultimately has consequences. In the wake of personal and professional failure, Anthony retreats to a vacation home where he encounters a friend from his past who may just be avoiding his own issues. Current frustrations claw at old tensions forcing the two men to deal with each other and themselves.

Programmer Notes: Shut Up, Anthony feels like getting the kind of therapy we should have got for the difficult times in our lives at that perfectly unexpected moment. The heart of the story is tragedy with humorous spotlights cast on the nuances of how people deal with it.
