Chris Gorham and Arielle Kebbel star in "Answer This!"

A trailer for the feature film comedy "Answer This!" — the product of Ann Arbor native brothers Chris (screenwriter/director) and Mike (producer) Farah — has surfaced online at the movie's new website, http://www.answerthismovie.com/#/main/.

The film was shot in August 2009 in several Ann Arbor locations, including parts of the University of Michigan's campus. For the first time in school history, U-M allowed the setting of the fictional movie to be identified as the University of Michigan.

Locals had the chance to see the whole movie at a sold-out, October sneak preview screening at the Michigan Theater, and the film was recently selected for inclusion in the Cleveland International Film Festival.

Here's the just-released trailer:

The movie tells the story of a longtime U-M grad student (Chris Gorham) who's struggling with his impending, dreaded graduation, as well as pressure from his academically legendary father (retired U-M professor Ralph Williams), when he becomes involved with a young undergraduate and pub trivia contests.
