EXACT CHANGE.
On the eve of their ninth anniversary, a sweet but naive young couple face a boorish adversary who threatens to ruin their big day.
In a timeless place, on a road going nowhere, Tom Riley’s debut short tells the tale of a relationship diverging.
Written by Screen International Star of Tomorrow Richard Galazka, it stars Lizzy Caplan (Masters of Sex), Martin Starr (Silicon Valley), Billy Gardell (Mike and Molly), and Anthony Carrigan (Barry).
The Toll Road enjoyed a successful run on the 2019-2020 International festival circuit, receiving awards for its direction, acting, and the film itself.
In August 2020 it was picked up by shorts platform WēVē TV as the flagship film for their new streaming service.
“What makes The Toll Road so amazing…is how it says, ‘I know how you feel. You’re not alone.’ …Riley and Galazka’s The Toll Road is an excellent parable that exposes the perils of the vitriolic echo chamber.” - Alan Ng, Film Threat.
