HOW AM I DOING? follows the story of recovering alcoholic Eli Meyers, a charming, not quite handsome, forty-something fading actor. Working to prove his stability and reconcile with his family, Eli is thrown for a loop when ex-wife Ronda announces her engagement to Dr. Nick Pappas, aka “Dr. Ventricle”. Temptation and potential failure lurk at every turn and Eli constantly fights to do his best. He will soon realize that progress is anything but linear. Audiences can catch HOW AM I DOING? on FRIDAY, November 13 at 10AM PDT/1PM EDT during the TV TROPES block.

Over 400 films will play throughout the seven-day festival. Winners will be announced on Sunday, November 15th online along with the three Oscar®-Qualifying categories, Best Short Film, Best Live Action, and Best Animation Short.
