A romantic fable and black comedy of sweetly odd proportions. "Expiration Date" tells the tale of Charlie Silvercloud III (Robert A. Guthrie), a man with a heavy ancestral weight on his shoulders. His father and grandfather were both killed on their 25th birthdays by milk trucks. Just 8 days before Charlie's 25th birthday, he is buying a casket and returning his library books when he meets a girl who won't let him die in peace. A romantic fable of love, death and milk.

This popular film has won 33 awards, including several Audience Awards. CBS Radio calls it "an utterly original, quirky comedy."

"I was won over... (Director) Stevenson brings a romantic heart to the slyly underplayed offbeat humor and inspired sight gags."
—Sean Axmaker, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

This playful yarn offers multiple layers of humor, pathos and charm. -SC
