Sadness of Others, The

In THE SADNESS OF OTHERS, a situation comedy written and directed by Mike Taylor, a minor administrative error drops five characters into our dimension. A financial analyst, a videotherapist, an actor, an Eastern European journalist and a parrot. Unaware of their former existence except in their dreams, they live, love, fail and succeed without ever really questioning their lives. They have desires for which there are no words; sometimes they feel a mysterious sadness and they long for something more, yet manage to get up and go to work.-ess
