Benjamin Gibbard is the lead singer and songwriter for the multi-Grammy nominated indie-rock band Death Cab for Cutie. He has collaborated with numerous other artists over the years, including Jimmy Tamborello (DNTEL, Figurine) on The Postal Service, whose sole album was certified platinum and spawned the hit song, ‘Such Great Heights.’  Gibbard has also worked alongside Jay Farrar (Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo) on the soundtrack and accompanying album to the Jack Kerouac documentary ONE FAST MOVE OR I’M GONE as well as with musician/producer Steve Fisk on the soundtrack to the documentary, KURT COBAIN ABOUT A SON.  He also contributed original compositions for the film ARTHUR released in 2011 and appeared in the film BRIEF HISTORY OF HIDEOUS MEN directed by John Krasinski and based on the book by David Foster Wallace.

ABOUT LAGGIES
Overeducated and underemployed, 28 year old Megan (Keira Knightley) is in the throes of a quarterlife crisis. Squarely into adulthood with no career prospects, no particular motivation to think about her future and no one to relate to, Megan is comfortable lagging a few steps behind – while her friends check off milestones and celebrate their new grown-up status. When her high-school sweetheart (Mark Webber) proposes, Megan panics and– given an unexpected opportunity to escape for a week – hides out in the home of her new friend, 16-year old Annika (Chloë Grace Moretz) and Annika’s world-weary single dad Craig (Sam Rockwell).

Lynn Shelton, whose unique directorial voice created such astutely observed comedies as YOUR SISTER’S SISTER and HUMPDAY, crafts a sweet, romantic coming-of-age comedy about three people who find their lives intertwined in the most unconventional way as they make through the imperfect realities of modern day life. Keira Knightley shines as Megan, a rare female slacker hero who shows us that while you never stop growing up, you can choose stop lagging, and start living on your terms.
