Safety Not Guaranteed

Three journalists set out to investigate an oddball who claims he can time travel in this indie comedy directed by Colin Trevorrow. When a local paper discovers a personal ad asking for someone to share in a time-traveling trip with the writer, the editor dispatches Jeff (Jake M Johnson) and interns Darius (Aubrey Plaza) and Arnau (Karan Soni) to get a story. After tracing the ad to quirky supermarket shelf-stacker Kenneth (Mark Duplass), an initially sceptical Darius manages to gain his confidence by posing as a potential candidate for his mission. But over the coming weeks, as she undertakes 'training exercises' in the nearby woods, she gradually finds herself torn between her developing feelings for Kenneth and her obligations as a budding reporter.
