Renowned social media influencer Dzanielle (Jill Kargman, Odd Mom Out) navigates fake friends among the Black card-swiping, workout-addicted Upper East Siders of New York. In her comedic quest for a million followers, she finds her first real new friend and her true self.
INFLUENCED is a hilariously foul-mouthed, warm-hearted satire of New York City's Upper East Side "influencer" culture from co-writer/star Jill Kargman (New York Times best-selling author and creator of Bravo TV's Odd Mom Out) and director Rachel Israel (Keep the Change),
Kargman leads an all-star ensemble cast including David Krumholtz, Justin Bartha, Christine Taylor, Laura Bell Bundy, Jessica Capshaw, Eugene Cordero and Dan Hedaya - plus hilarious cameos by Drew Barrymore, Jason Biggs, Gwyneth Paltrow and Matt Damon.
