BAD CONNECTIONS? follows the lives of nine eccentric and delightful New Yorkers making their way through a rainy Manhattan day. One man brings them together as they face tragedy, loss, pain, understanding, and forgiveness … as they see their lives in a new way and realize they might be getting it all wrong – or maybe not!
