Little Big Joe, a little boy with a big superhero imagination, takes us on his quest to find love in his run-down apartment complex. With the help of his Cookie Monster wagon and his James Bond Walmart tux, he takes on bullies and fights to win the girl. All seems right with the world until Little Big Joe encounters his arch nemesis—stinky, slimy bugs! The little boy’s superhero imagination powers fail him as he discovers a darkness that lives deep within the walls of his apartment. Can he save the world? Can he save himself? Or will the bugs conquer the day?

In a tour de force performance, Joseph Valdez takes us on a wild ride where the only thing standing between life and death is his imagination!
