My Name is Wallace (Romantic Comedy/Differently-Abled/Dramedy)

A lonely, autistic man misunderstands a computer ad, connects to a fantasy-sex site, and falls in love.

Wallace Waverly, a lonesome, high-functioning autistic man goes looking for love in all the wrong places...and finds it!

One day, as he plays a solitary video game on his computer, a pop-up ad asks: "Lonely? Need love?" He is without a doubt lonely and loveless since his mother's recent death, so Wallace clicks the site and meets Tiffany, an fantasy-sex operator. It's a moment that will change his life.

This expanded, feature-length story is based upon Bob Pondillo's multi-award-winning narrative short of the same name. To view proof of concept, see - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZT4ylOqP-k
