SNUGGLR is an improvised web series following a young Turkish girl who works for a cuddling app providing on demand intimacy for lonely Chicagoans.

Once upon a time there was an app. They called it a social meeting app where strangers could convene for casual, platonic cuddling in private or public spaces. The app found some success among single people and Buzzfeed articles, but ultimately shut down for unknown reasons. We assume it’s because a lot can happen when two strangers meet up on the Internet. Especially if they’re lonely. But this is not really a show about a cuddling app. This is a show about a girl who probably shouldn’t be working for one.

*Aside from the actors, nobody cuddled in the making of this film.
