Caitlin Plays Herself

Caitlin, a young Chicago artist, struggles to create work that is both personal and political. A piece she performs about the BP oil spill sends her relationship into a tailspin when her boyfriend can't get over the fact that she was naked during the performance. Caitlin directs her energy toward sustainable living and a series of dates with other guys, but her on-again/off-again relationship with her boyfriend starts to resemble America's relationship with the oil companies.
