Ethan Itzkow was born just outside of Chicago in Lincolnwood, IL.
He is the first in his family to pursue a career in the arts, his mother having been a contract lawyer and his father a defense attorney and entrepreneur.
He attended Ithaca College in their BFA department before deciding to leave the school for different training, and attended the Lee Strasberg institute in New York.
In addition to his acting, he is also a produced playwright.
After a rare night of drinking on her 25th birthday, Jess wakes up to a wicked hangover and surprise unemployment. As she struggles with whether or not to spend her last few bucks on weed, she tries to pick up the pieces of her life and find some peace of mind in the process.
To realize her dream of launching into uncharted space, a determined astronaut must choose to leave her humanity behind. The film hopes to grapple with what it means to be human in a rapidly changing medical and digital landscape, the cost of progress, and the desire to push beyond personal limits.
