Synopsis

'Five instantly recognizable multi-cultural characters play out their coincidental relationships in a very contemporary paradise—a park on the outskirts of a city. All of them are, in one form or another, engaged in the "fundamental right" of the pursuit of their own happiness, whether that means acquiring life skills, improving their career prospects, working on their family relationships, increasing social justice in the world, balancing the concerns of crime and punishment, or integrating more closely with what they identify as their own communities. Of course, the pursuit of these personal goals, usually considered as good and worthwhile in our society, pits each of these characters irrevocably against each other."
