Synopsis

Jump Tomorrow weaves the drama of a road-movie into a humorous tale of passion, romance and friendship.

When introvert George meets a stunning Latin girl, they are both instantly smitten. The only problem is that he is due to marry a childhood friend from Nigeria in just four days. An eccentric and lovesick Frenchman named Gerard stumbles into George's life and the two embark on a road trip.

During this odd couple's journey to upstate New York, George becomes torn between duty to his arranged marriage and his fascination with Alicia's culture and the Spanish language. A sweet, timid man normally filled with anxiety, George begins to loosen a little - whether it's fantasising he's the virile hero of the Spanish soaps or chasing his true love up the highway.

A quiet man living a little, George learns to live a little louder.
