Full Length, 3 W & 1 M
​
Emily Dickinson, an unconventional employee with a penchant for gothic poetry, is slowly breathing new life into her soul-crushing corporate job at the bear-stuffing store “Build-A-Buddy". But when her Employee of the Month manager Stacy delivers an ultimatum – fall in line or get fired – Emily’s rebellion reaches a breaking point. Enter customers Tiffany and Brad, who are headed to Build-A-Buddy for their three (or is it five?) year anniversary. Once they cross the threshold into Corporate America, Build-A-Buddy becomes more than just a retail store; it transforms into a breeding ground for love, secrets, and vengeance – altering four lives forever.
