BOB TREVINO LIKES, inspired by the true friendship that writer/director Tracey Laymon found with a stranger while searching for her father online. Often playing the role of a caregiver to people like her father who should be taking care of her, Lily Trevino longs for a family connection after being abandoned by her mother as a child and then suddenly by her father in her twenties. Bob Trevino works long hours alone at a construction company to support his wife Jeanie’s album-making habits. The couple has been through a lot over the past decade, and Bob has tried to put his wife first, ignoring his own feelings and need for friendship, meaning, and connection—that is, until he receives an unexpected Facebook message from a stranger. Lily and Bob’s blossoming friendship becomes a major source of connection and healing in both of their lives. Bob’s small acts of fatherly kindness fill the family void in Lily’s life and hold the power to change her direction forever. Both must learn, in their own way, that they are worthy of extraordinary love, as evidenced by small acts of kindness.
