Synopsis
Jimmy Boner (Josh Burk – Winner Winner Chicken Diner, Fat Girl) is a loser with nothing to prove. He lives with his parents and spends his days getting stoned, playing video games, and drawing cartoons. But when Jimmy accidentally walks in on his wicked stepmother’s book club meeting wearing nothing but an iPod, he is forced to get a job and move out.
Despite having no marketable skills, Jimmy lands a job at a rundown accounting firm run by Ivana (Ann Wilson – Fat Girl), a beautiful, corporate ice queen whom Jimmy instantly identifies as his future bride. But there is no shortage of obstacles on Jimmy’s path to true love, not the least of which is Ivana’s boyfriend, Derrick (Darrel Cherney – Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., DisOrientation), who’s everything Jimmy isn’t: good-looking, rich, and slick as an oil spill.
Undeterred, Jimmy begins his quest to win Ivana’s heart. Chaos and hilarity ensue as Jimmy attempts to transform himself from a zero to a hero in order to get the girl.

About Production
Boner is an independent romantic comedy produced by the comic dream team, Tao Zheng, Anthony Butler, and Emily Condit (a.k.a Mad T.E.A. productions). Production started in December 2011 and finished in October of 2012. Post-production concluded in June 2014. The concept for the film arose from Tao Zheng’s lifelong aspiration to combine his animation skills with live-action comedy. Tao approached Emily Condit and Anthony Butler to contribute their writing and filmmaking skills to the project and the trio soon formed an artistic partnership that would carry them on a 2.5 year journey to be able to say what few people can: “We made a movie!”
Along the road, Tao, Emily, and Anthony met some brilliant actors and musicians and made some great friends that led to other collaborations and partnerships. Other major contributors to the production include Phil Condit (co-director and editor), Josh Burk (Jimmy Boner), Ann Wilson, Darrel Cherney, Natalie Storrs, David Kaufman, Beverly Swanson, Adam Kortlever, Dawna Lee Heising, Ryan McLean, Tyler Combs, and Rich Renken. They all kick major ass and the film could never have been as great as it turned out to be without the dedication and commitment of every single one of them in the face of extreme budgetary and time constraints. This film is dedicated to them. Please visit the Cast and Crew page to learn more about our fantastic artistic conspirators.
