Goldberg comes from the world of documentary filmmaking, and Wormser is a comedian who made a comedy short of her own. Both of their films centered empathy and human struggle, which caught each filmmaker's attention.Their Sundance project, Soft Boil, just premiered in the episodic pilot block.The comedy follows Lulu (Wormser), an aspiring actor who is desperate enough for a job to try nannying, a position for which she is both woefully underqualified and emotionally unprepared, especially after she catches her boyfriend cheating in their shower. As she tries to pick up the pieces, she makes a series of questionable choices. The pilot was directed by Goldberg and co-written by the pair.
