To lonely eight-year-old Kay Washington the worst thing in the world is silence. That's why Eddie Video makes the perfect imaginary friend. He's smart, rambunctious, and loves pulling pranks. But most important, he's never ever quiet.
Forty-something, immigrant Ivan is a contract killer with an unusual specialty: imaginary friends who've overstayed their welcome. His only rule, no kids—kids need their imaginary friends.
But when one of Eddie Video's "pranks" goes too far and lands Kay in the hospital, Ivan agrees maybe exceptions can be made. After all, rent is due. But Ivan and Kay will soon learn Eddie Video is no ordinary imaginary friend; he is something much, much darker.
A balance of comedy and catharsis, this dual-narrative tackles both the fear of growing up and the scars our childhood leaves behind.
