Build your story, one connection at a time
Jan 28 - Feb 15
When Kenneth’s life of quiet routine— a bookstore job and happy hour mai tais—is suddenly upended, he is confronted by an unfamiliar world of possibility. Come with us on this sweet, moving exploration of trust, transformation, and the unexpected ways we find each other.
January 28–February 15, 2026
Primary Trust contains strong language and mature themes. Please see our content transparency section below for more information.
Primary Trust by Eboni Booth is a tender, contemporary dramedy about friendship, small-town life, and finding your way after loss. While filled with humor and hope, it also touches on themes of grief and mental health.
