Aias Dalman is a 10-year-old child actor and screenwriter from Vancouver, BC, Canada. Scouted by Young Moviemakers Director Levente Mihalik while in a kindergarten science class, Aias spent the next 3 years working in Vancouver independent film both as an actor and writer. By the age of 7 his screenplays had already won awards, including Best Film Overall at the Toronto International Film Festival's (TIFF) Young Filmmakers Showcase for "The Fortune Teller," as well as Best Narrative at the Calgary International Film Festival for "Teen Chick." His most recent work, "Tough Guy," was screened at over 24 film festivals internationally in 2018 and continues to circulate at festivals in 2019. While his first loves are science and the independent film industry, in 2018 Aias decided to sign with Lucas Talent in Vancouver and has since been in a number of TV, Film, and Commercial productions around the city. While Aias loves acting theatrically, especially with the fascinating people he meets on set, he aspires to someday have his own "Bill Nye" style Science Show and ultimately to give his own TED Talk.
Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place. True, she still has gig jobs instead of a career, and the apartment where she’s lived since college still looks like she’s just moved in. But she’s got good friends, her bike, and her bicycling club in Philadelphia. She’s at peace with her plus-size body—at least, most of the time—and she’s on track to marry Mark Medoff, her childhood sweetheart, a man she met at the weight-loss camp that her perpetually dieting mother forced her to attend. Fifteen years after her final summer at Camp Golden Hills, when Abby reconnects with a half-his-size Mark, it feels like the happy ending she’s always wanted. Yet Abby can’t escape the feeling that something isn’t right...or the memories of one thrilling night she spent with a man named Sebastian two years previously. When Abby gets a last-minute invitation to lead a cycling trip from NYC to Niagara Falls, she’s happy to have time away from Mark, a chance to reflect and make up her mind.
