Looking to break into a career in Hollywood, four 20-somethings -- aspiring filmmaker Gillian, wannabe writer Rigby, undiscovered actor Danny and prospective producer Nate -- quickly find out there's a reason it's called "show business" as the assistants to quirky, slightly insane movie producer Zak Del Toro. Whether it's answering phones, binding scripts or taking notes at Kinky Bunny Pictures, these assistants do whatever it takes to impress the boss.
