'One Year Lease' documents the travails of Brian, Thomas, and Casper as they endure a year-long sentence with Rita, the cat-loving landlady.

Ah, the joy's of renting in New York City! A tiny, expensive apartment is expected. But an eccentric landlord with an itchy speed-dial finger? Told almost entirely through voice mail messages One Year Lease documents the travails of Brian, Thomas and Casper as they endure a year-long sentence with Rita the cat-loving landlady.
