“BEST FRIENDS FOREVER is a clever dark comedy and heartfelt road trip buddy film wrapped in an apocalyptic disaster story, with two badass girls. Harriet (Brea Grant), a perpetually optimistic comic-book artist, dreams of escaping her past in Los Angeles and hits the road for a new life in Austin, Texas. She drags Reba (Vera Miao), her seemingly devil-may-care BFF, along for the ride. In the hush period following mysterious nuclear explosions, the girls are forced to ask: When faced with the end of the world – what is most important to you?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In celebration of the iTunes release, art from the film by renowned comic book artists Fabio Moon (Eisner Award winner) and Ryan Kelly will be avaiable at BreaGrant.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
