Synopsis

When recent graduate Benson Blair is excised from his parent’s house he creates a fictional product, Chokochup, in order to qualify for subsidized office space in a trendy part of town, which he covertly coverts into an apartment. While his entrepreneurial peers attempt to launch their products and impress Ryan Fitzpatrick the billionaire who owns the swanky office building, Benson, under the guise of Chokochup (a disgusting combination of chocolate and ketchup), takes full advantage of the commons space, the receptionist, the free coffee and along with his lady-loving best friend, runs illegitimate business activities.

    Love the single camera documentary style and the natural interviews. Framing is a bit off. Concept looks funny but do not know the whole story...yet.
