WANDALERIA is a love story about Wanda, a housebound Maine woman whose fantasy life outpaces her reality. Against the better advice of her roommate Betsy (and with the encouragement of her niece, Ivy), Wanda keeps a pen pal relationship with Rocky, a Florida prisoner. When Rocky suddenly shows up on her doorstep in the middle of a freak October snowstorm, Wanda sizes up a new life with a man on the lam as he offers her a chance to truly re-imagine her life. A hilarious and heartwarming story for a chilly winter night!
