When pragmatic Fran decides to have a baby on her own, she recruits Ben, the kind but unpredictable classmate she skipped prom with, for a highly organized DIY insemination weekend in Toledo. But her meticulous plan implodes when she discovers Ben is Autistic and coping with some serious mental health challenges. As obstacles pile up, the pair must improvise their way through a wild mix of awkward humor, heartfelt confessions, and an unexpected connection. Lone Wolves is a sharp, laugh-filled romantic dramedy about friendship, fertility, and finding hope in the most imperfect moments.
