In a World...2013
Speak up and let your voice be heard
An underachieving vocal coach is motivated by her father, the king of movie-trailer voice-overs, to pursue her aspirations of becoming a voice-over star. Amidst pride, sexism and family dysfunction, she sets out to change the voice of a generation.

A clever, likable comedy that sends up sexism, satirizes Hollywood, examines family ties and features a surprisingly tender romance at its core.
The daughter of a well known voice-over artist tries to crack the family business, facing tough competition from her father and his egotistical a-hole of a protegé. Despite a wealth of great comedians scattered about the cast, this isn't all that funny, even when a few short scenes seem to exist solely to lob softballs. The flirty romance that develops between leading lady Lake Bell (who also directs) and bashful everyman Demetri Martin is sweet and real, but only serves as a brief distraction from the ponderous central storyline. A cute concept that fails to blossom into anything of special substance.
It’s not only a fresh and funny spoof of the movie business, it represents a real-life triumph within it.
