Since his parents left on a tropical vacation over a year ago, Curtis refuses to leave his tiny dorm room, simply finding contentment in the postcards he receives from Mom and Dad each day. His girlfriend Izabel wants Curtis to leave with her, but with the security threat level rising, Curtis would rather stay where he feels safe. The War on Safety is an ordinary and unlikely tale of longing in the face of terror, a romantic comedy of errors, and a tropical fantasy.
