The Story: It’s the night before the 2016 Presidential election and young Cody Weber has taken a purity pledge with his conservative fiancé. No sex until they are married – but that doesn’t keep him from visiting an Internet chat room where he meets an attractive young model named Amanda. Overcome by guilt, Cody can’t go through with the encounter but is shocked when Amanda “appears” in his apartment. His roommate, Kyle, is thrilled that his best friend is back to his old self and after a night of laughter and revelation, the prospect of a threesome becomes hard to resist. Is Amanda an apparition or real? Regardless, Cody knows he has a life-changing decision to make.

Peter Foldy (Writer/Director) received a Best Film and Best Director Award from the Planet Indie Film Festival in Toronto as well as a Jury Award from the Tambay Film Festival for his feature, “Silver Man,” that starred Eugene Levy, Joe Pantoliano, and Daniel Baldwin. He has garnered several Cine Golden Eagle Awards for his educational short films, as well as a number of music awards for his work as a recording artist.

On television Foldy co-created and co-produced the Showtime TV series, My First Time, now a live stage production, called My First Time that had a successful three-year run off-Broadway and has since been produced world-wide in cities such as Madrid, Paris, Sydney, Montreal and Rio de Janeiro.

Foldy is currently developing a stage musical called Liverpool Lads, based on the true story of the first band signed to the Beatles company, Apple. He has recently returned to his musical roots with the release of a CD entitled Nine Lives, earning him airplay and strong reviews in Canada, the US and beyond.
