Synopsis:

The critically acclaimed romantic comedy, Next Stop Wonderland is a lighthearted story about a man and a woman who seem destined to be together... and the hilarious chain of accidents that seem determined to keep them apart! Dumped by her loser boyfriend (Philip Seymour Hoffman - Cold Mountain), Erin (Hope Davies - Arlington Road) thinks that her love life has hit rock bottom. In reality, the all-time low comes when her overbearing mother places an embarrassing ad for her in the "personals" section of the local newspaper! Erin's disgust turns to curiosity, however, when the calls start pouring in - all 64 of them! As she searches for the right guy in a hilarious series of disastrous dates, a lonely ex-plumber named Alan clumsily searches for his dream job... all the while narrowly missing one chance meeting with Erin after another! Filled with delightfully unexpected surprises - you're sure to love every minute of this smart and funny adventure into the wildly unpredictable world of dating!

An independent romantic comedy, Next Stop, Wonderland (1998) made headlines at the Sundance Film Festival when it became the object of a bidding war, ultimately won by Miramax Pictures to the tune of $6 million. HOPE DAVIS stars as Erin Castleton, a night-shift nurse who's cruelly dumped by her boyfriend Sean (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a political activist. When her mother Piper (Holland Taylor) places a wildly inaccurate personals ad in the local paper, Erin is at first enraged, but then becomes curious. After she dates a variety of men who are all wrong for her, she meets Andre (Jose Zuniga), a handsome Brazilian music expert who invites her to Sao Paulo. Although Erin likes Andre, her Mr. Right is actually Alan Monteiro (ALAN GELFANT), a plumber she's never met, though the two keep crossing paths. Trying to break out of his working class existence, Alan is studying marine biology but is indebted to a local mob boss, who wants him to kidnap a star blowfish from the local aquarium.

Erin is a nurse and her longtime boyfriend has dumped her. Her mother Piper places a personal ad for her. Meanwhile the film follows the life of Alan, a volunteer at a local aquarium who dreams of becoming a marine biologist. Will their paths cross?
