Post film Q&A with director Matthew Aaron following the 7:30pm Sunday, March 26th screening!LANDLINE tells the story of a huge Chicago Cubs fan who works as a public relations executive, Ted Gout. Ted loses a big promotion to a new college graduate who has the upper hand when it comes to technology. Ted soon embarks on a low-tech, old school journey to find himself. He decides to literally give up his cell phone and disconnects. With his husband and friends in tow, Ted experiences the pros and cons of modern technology before finding a way to win his promotion back so he and his husband can buy their dream home. LANDLINE was written, produced, and directed by its lead actor, Matthew Aaron (‘Ted Gout’). Also featured are Tom Arnold (‘Chuck Gout’), Jim O’Heir (“Steve Gout”), Betsy Brandt (‘Fiona’), Nick Searcy (‘Officer Garrett’), Louie Lombardi (‘Chaz’), and Chicago Cub legend Ryne Sandberg as himself.
