Unplugged

by Joe Barrett

Dan Johnson is living the dream, or so everyone tells him. A nine-digit net worth, a beautiful fianc�e, and a posh riverside home sum up his enviable life. But the glare of digital screens and the relentless ringing of smart devices have left him empty and confused, unsure of what he truly wants. In a bold move, Dan unplugs from the all-consuming digital world, shutting off his phone, avoiding emails, and ditching social media. His quest for clarity takes him down a road far from the techno-saturated buzz, where a mistake thrusts him into an outlandish series of events and peculiar relations. As Dan navigates this non-digital reality filled with unexpected human connections and absurdities, he grapples with life's real adventures and the search for authenticity in the madness of modern existence. 'Unplugged' is a sharp and witty coming of middle-age tale that examines what it means to live a meaningful life in an era where every second is dominated by the artificial urgency of pings, likes, and shares.
