ROLE DESCRIPTIONS

JIM: A fact checker. Extremely high I.Q., utterly earnest, well-intentioned and tireless. Rules, protocols, algorithms and facts guide him in life. Confident but never arrogant.

JOHN: One of the world's greatest living essayists. Highly intelligent and often frustrated by what he views as trivial concerns -- trivial, to him, meaning those things that are not in direct contact with beauty and the divine.

EMILY: Editor-in-Chief at a high-end Manhattan magazine. Possess a great ambition to couple cultural meaningfulness with commercial success. A tiger professionally, it’s all or nothing.
