Director Jim Strouse and star Noël Wells will be in attendance for a post film Q&A
Presented as part of THE CHICAGO CRITICS FILM FESTIVAL
Jessica James (Jessica Williams), a young, aspiring playwright in New York City, is struggling to get over a recent breakup while trying to make it in the competitive world of the theater. Reluctantly forced to date by a well-meaning friend, she meets the recently divorced Boone (Chris O'Dowd). An unlikely duo at first, together, they discover how to make it through the tough times, in a social media obsessed post-relationship universe, while realizing they like each other - a lot. Featuring a breakout performance from Jessica Williams, THE INCREDIBLE JESSICA JAMES is a refreshing and heartfelt modern comedy with an honest, hilarious and shockingly relatable look at what it means to be a twenty-something today.
