Chasing Steeples is a coming of age comedy about post- graduate life, the idiosyncrasies of track and field, and the changing landscape of college friendships.

Longer Synopsis:

Simone, a senior in college attending her first NCAA Track and Field Championships and a separate group of college friends reuniting for a wedding cross paths in the hallway of a Courtyard Marriott. Due to an act of circumstance, Simone gets pulled into the group's shenanigans. Through their reminiscence about the strange world of collegiate track and field, she is forced to reckon with some of her fears for life post- graduation.
