A darkly comic love story, The Existential Astronaut Association follows Dr. Samuel Cassidy, a rebellious criminal psychiatrist who does not believe in insanity, as he tries to come to terms with his fianceeÕs growing mental illness. Dr. Arthur Washington, once Samuel's partner in their mysterious college club, The Existential Astronaut Association, tries to commit Samuel's fiancee Jessica after she attacks Arthur's wife at a baseball game. What follows is the violent struggle between love and madness and Sam's journey towards accepting his true place in the world.
