Best friends Nick (Alex Karpovsky) and Darryl (Tarik Lowe) are a New York film editing duo hired to salvage a botched comedy from a manic director (Kevin Corrigan) gone AWOL. But what starts as a simple job quickly sends their relationships—with their significant others and each other—reeling. Amidst trouble with his fiancée (Sophia Takal), Nick finds himself falling for the film's flirtatious ingénue (Arielle Kebbel); Darryl, meanwhile, struggles to focus on his editing work in between fights with his tempestuous girlfriend (Melonie Diaz). With real humour and heart, Supporting Characters offers a sharp, knowing take on life and love in the big city.
