AWAY WE GO is a charming indie film about a quirky young non-slacker couple--he sells insurance to insurance companies; she's a medical illustrator.  They've just become pregnant when his parents (hers are already dead) inform them that they're moving to Europe for the next two years.  So much for interested grandparents...The young couple decide to check out where might be a good place to have and raise this child: near his brother? her sister? former work buddies? etc.  Since both their jobs are so portable, they head out on a road trip to explore their possibilities.  
The writing is terrific, ditto the acting.  The quirkiness factor is subtle enough that it's barely noticeable, actually, once you get over the first few scenes.  I loved AWAY WE GO.  I hope you do too.  For production details, check imdb.com.
