Inspired by true events in the lives of the creators, Waiting For Johnny Depp takes us on a wild ride with New York actress Rita Donatella, in her quest to land a starring role in a Johnny Depp film. She constantly re-invents herself to be more perfect for the role, as she navigates the rough waters of surviving in the big apple with her dream intact. It is both hilarious and heartwarming, to see how Rita comes to terms with the big questions: how to survive financially, how to recognize true love, how to balance the demands of career and family, and ultimately, what is really important in life?
