SYNOPSIS
Thomas Shore needs some time alone.  He's planned a relaxing vacation at the beach - away from his job, co-workers, boss, friends, and family.  But when he arrives at his destination, he finds these people pursuing him in aggressive and increasingly absurd ways.  Featuring a quirky cast including Tiffany ("I Think We're Alone Now), "The Isolationist" is an absurdist dark comedy about trying to get away...and failing.
