Marty Lane is a serious film maker, but after a string of film and TV flops, no production company will take him seriously ever again. Instead they only want him to remake "The Future Kids", his hit 9O's children's Sci-Fi TV show. Marty sinks into a depression and only Robyn, a daughter of an old friend and colleague, is able to encourage him to keep trying. However, after yet another film project gets rejected, a chance meeting with his old Production Assistant on Future Kids, Ed, sets him on a path he thought he didn't want to tread, and Marty discovers a project he never knew he started.
