You\u2019re awake when everyone else is asleep. You\u2019re standing still as traffic is whipping by at 70 mph. Your off hours are spent trying to figure out why you\u2019re here, whether you want to stay, and how to leave.<\/p>\n

Francine (Amy Seimitz) works as a waitress whose liberation from her mundane existence is long overdue. In the restless world of the night shift at a highway diner, Francine\u2019s life consists of casual encounters and transient friendships. What she wants is out of reach \u2013 or is it that she\u2019s lost track of wanting anything at all? When a banker turned big-rig driver becomes a regular, he sparks hope in Francine. As change begins to invade the quiet diner, Francine is reminded that it is never too late to become the person she was meant to be.<\/p>\n

The Off Hours<\/strong> provides a reverse angle for a road movie, focusing not on the people passing through but on those who stay behind. Megan Griffiths draws complex characters and stays true to them, respecting their shortcomings and yearnings for connection.<\/p>\n
