Tow Away Zone

When a travelling salesman stumbles on a secret town, he must choose between love and a long-held promise of untold riches.

Why is the Arizona town of Sunrise not on any map?
Why is it festooned with neon lights?
Is it the answer to a travelling salesman’s 12-year dream of promotion?

Beckman Spiers is a grey man in a grey world — and he’s happy with that. After twelve years of routine and grind, he’s again fighting to become The Pegasus Corporation’s lauded Number One Salesman of the Year. Legend has it, Number Ones get so rich, they never work again. With only one week to go, Beckman is gaining on his nemesis, smooth-talking Tyler.

When a chance blowout on a deserted Arizona road leaves Beckman stranded, the enigmatic Saul arrives and tows him to the curious neon-lit town of Sunrise.
Here, he meets the glamorous Lolita, sparks fly, and his fortunes change. He can’t fall in love with her, of course – she’s already engaged. And he’s not stopping for more than a night… is he?

Yet, Beckman accidentally discovers that Sunrise’s small-town charms conceal secrets. Soon, his once monochrome world becomes a colourful one filled with fraught friendships, private investigators, and an unexpected shot at romance.

What will he have to do to reach Number One?
And if he wins, will he turn his back on love?

In this stylistic and mysterious romantic comedy, meet the most unique characters and get pulled into the colourful world of Sunrise.
