Fare Trade, Episode Three: ISO A Super Miracle
Synopsis
Fare Trade follows the misadventures of Cleo, Vic, and Janet, three self-absorbed millennials who no longer believe in money. They don’t want to make it, they don’t want to spend it. Getting by in the big city with no cash lands them in a world of crooked cops, superheroes, and zombies that want to make love. They barter, they cheat, they steal, and they scheme. Oh, how they will scheme.
