8:30

Logline
A group of door-to-door salesmen get a train to a mysterious suburb, and find themselves in what seems to be some kind of infinite loop. Following one of the group as he continuously returns to the same train station to start his day over and over again, 8:30 is a satirical gag about urban dislocation, capitalism, and Google Street View, the weirdness of identikit suburbia, and the blurring of lines between reality and fiction in the digital age.
