Commitment-phobic Tru lives life on the fast track—whether it’s girlfriends or jobs, she is always speeding on to the next one. One day she helps her good friend Suzanne, a type-A lawyer with such a busy schedule she can’t find the time to let her visiting mother into her own house. This is how she meets Alice, a beautiful and charming widow who is still trying to cope with her husband’s recent passing.

That night, true to form, Tru stands up one of her many disposable dates, but this time it’s for the noble reason of keeping Alice company at dinner. What starts as a polite gesture turns into a night of scintillating conversation, and as Tru starts to open up about the tragicomedies of her love life, Alice finds herself intoxicated by a whole new world full of discoveries. To Suzanne’s surprise and discomfort, Tru’s offers to lighten her overloaded schedule by showing her mother around become frequent. Tru and Alice’s time together not only starts to change Alice’s concealed ambivalence toward women, but also stirs up her daughter’s jealousy.

Feeling slightly betrayed and quite conflicted, Suzanne tries to hinder this blossoming new relationship—one that may give free-spirited Tru the emotional grounding she has been searching for. Canadian filmmakers Kate Johnston and Shauna MacDonald deliver a stirring romantic drama about looking for love in all the wrong places and discovering an unexpected and exquisite connection.
