In this bromantic comedy misadventure, Paul (Adam Carbone), a socially awkward college student, lives vicariously through his hero fantasies. When he inherits 500,000 frequent flyer miles, he takes his roommates Clyde & Jason (Abhi Sinha) on a trip around the world. However, their vacation takes an unexpected turn when they become hostages of a delusional Italian man who insists his daughter marry an American.

"MR. TED"
Born and raised in the quaint Northern California town of Grass Valley, Sean Michael Beyer moved south to Los Angeles in 1989 to follow his dreams. Since then, he has worn many hats throughout his career: filmmaker, producer, writer, editor, actor, musician, and is even a pretty good cook. His unique blend of talents are an integral part to any production.
Beyer co-wrote and directed the award-winning Randy’s Canvas, a touching romantic drama about an aspiring artist with autism who falls in love for the first time. Richard Riehle (Grandpa Paul) donned a German accent for Randy’s art professor, with Adam Carbone (Paul) in the title role. Randy’s Canvas was honored with Best Director at the 2018 Glendale International Film festival and Best Actor (Carbone) & Best Picture awards at the 2018 AutFest International Film Festival, presented by the late Ed Asner.
Next up was South Carolina for Sean to direct and co-write Hallmark’s dance-centric romp Another Tango, with Carbone producing and Nick Pasqual (Clyde) playing a supporting role.
Beyer made his feature film writing & directorial debut with the intense drama, Down the P.C.H. starring Lin Shaye (Insidious franchise, There’s Something About Mary), Guillermo Diaz (Scandal, Half Baked) and Elaine Hendrix (The Parent Trap) who won Best Actress at the 2007 Baja California International Film Festival. Shortly after “PCH” picked up worldwide distribution, all while being made for a mere $40,000! His second film, The Legend of Resurrection Mary based upon the famous Chicago Urban Legend, stars Oscar-nominated & Golden Globe-Winning actress Sally Kirkland, and is available worldwide.
Beyer and Carbone took to the much smaller screen co-hosting their comedic online cooking show, Dude Food with Sean and sometimes Adam, garnering a worldwide cult following.
In development, Beyer wrote and will direct Rocky & James, a contemporary-language, LGBT romantic drama, inspired by Romeo & Juliet, with two teenaged boys falling in love under extraordinary circumstances; Innocent Requital (co-written with Pasqual) follows a former altar boy determined to enforce vigilante justice upon those who allegedly abused him and others, providing unexpected twists and turns, all while bringing fresh blood to an all too familiar genre.
