Starring Johnny Halloran (Kevin Can F**k Himself), Kate Darby and Michael Spencer, A Little Tent is a dark comedy about commitment, communication, and what happens when women are taught to be polite above all else.
Jenny and Andy’s situationship is hanging on by a thread. Andy doesn’t listen to Jenny, Jenny won’t say what she wants, and they’re headed to the worst possible place to solve a problem: the middle of the woods. When an intrusive man inserts himself into their business, Jenny wants to get out and Andy holds the power. In the end, they are both punished, but it is Jenny who may suffer the most.
