the team
In association with Broken Lizard, Moody Independent, J. Todd Harris Inc, Jamieson Shea and Jim Issa (“Producers”) have joined forces to develop and produce a modest budget film with humor, heart and break-out commercial potential.
BOLIO is a buddy-comedy about the encounter and fateful journey of two desperate people who have hit rock bottom.
I have at times felt like Dale; the lonely and depressed shop teacher, and like Chuck; the gregarious life coach who feels like he can talk his way into happiness.
This movie explores both extremes and everything in between, weaving in humor to remind us we have to laugh through tough times.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my film with you; I hope you laugh and take a breath to reflect on your personal journey of mental and emotional happiness. - Jim
