'The Frank Anderson'
Frank Anderson (Richard Riehle) has man-boobs. Insurance agent John Simon (Stephen Root) continues to deny Frank his much needed breast reduction procedure. Meanwhile, super-hot Bobbie Lynn (Elena Lyons) is quickly approved for breast enlargements. When Bobbie Lynn takes pity on Frank, John quickly agrees to an exam.
During Frank's exam, Dr. Emily Brice (Jane Lynch) explains to John the importance of approving the reduction. All the while she's admiring Frank's magnificent breasts. John, uncomfortable with the love fest between Dr. Brice and Frank's man-boobs, approves the operation.
Frank walks into John's office with Bobbie Lynn. Bobbie has convinced Frank that his man-boobs are awesome! They walk out all over each other, in love. John, dumbfounded at losing the super-hot woman to a man with man-boobs, consults with Dr. Julia Seales (Romy Rosemont) about getting a set of his own, setting off a man-boob epidemic

What inspired you to make your film? How did you come up with the idea for your film?
I was hanging out in Bend, Oregon a few summers ago and saw banners for an upcoming film festival and thought it would be fun to try and make a short film. The idea came after I thought of which actors would agree to be in it, what a good situation would be for them and what may stand out when I submitted to the festivals. And the man-boob concept came about.
What do you hope to convey through your film?
It's a comedy, so it'll be great if viewers think it's funny. The underlying theme is accepting the way you are.
Who are your favorite filmmakers/what are a few of your favorite films and why?
Some of my favorite films are The Barbarian Invasions, Hustle & Flow, and Aimee & Jaguar. They are awesome scripts. Unfortunately Aimee & Jaguar never got the US release it deserved.
