COPELESSNESSCopelessness is the inability to cope in a hopeless situation. This is exactly where Tom Dexter finds himself in this drama about a man’s struggle to hold on in the face of change. Tom is a hard-ass securities salesman who has slithered way beyond the lines of legality. He makes the characters from Glen Gary Glen Ross and Boiler Room look like candy-asses. He will talk you out of your life savings and then kick you when you end up on a soup line. He is ruled by the quest for green and doesn't care who gets hurt in the chase. Tom has just landed the sale of a lifetime: 7.3 million dollars. He is nonetheless stunned when his tactics cross the line one too many times. Desperate to find a way out, he contacts family and friends for help. Will he be able to pull his life back together, or will he stay helplessly lost in a state of Copelessness? This is a wake up call for anyone who takes life for granted.
