Shot in Flagstaff, starring actors from Flagstaff and written and directed by a guy from Flagstaff, “Unconscious” is a comedy about Raymond Hopajoki, a.k.a Hop (Eric Schultz) who’s down on his luck. He hates his snow-shoveling job, he can’t get over his monologue-ing ex (Laura Burt) and the only thing that keeps him going is his dream to one day become a novelist. The only problem is he’s got nothing to write about. 
After a night at the movies with this obnoxious best friend Andy (Matt Wilson), who loves “Your Mom” jokes, and Andy’s new cactus-loving fling Maria (Sydney Tolchinsky) he finally catches a break and meets Sharon (Kenlynn Shields), who’s just his type and a local film critic. Though, thanks to Andy, Sharon gets the impression that Hop’s unwritten and unpublished novel will soon be on book shelves… Just as it looks like Hop is getting the kick in the pants of life that he needs he has an unexpected accident with a typewriter. When he gains consciousness six months later he comes to realize that during the time he can’t remember he wrote a best selling novel and his life is completely different…
