Synopsis

What happens when two gay men in a disintegrating relationship leave the city to spend some time alone, together in nature? Is it possible for nature to reveal the truth, their true essence and help them change? Can these two wounded men; traumatised, hurt, lost and desperate on a remote beach find a way back to innocence? Is there a way back to back to love? Their relationship was formed against fear and loneliness. They fell in love, but they can’t handle love. They’ve both made mistakes, poisoning their relationship through secrets and lies. They suffer when together, but they can’t be apart. During their time on the beach they gradually expose their feelings and release their emotions. They rediscover their love for each other and more importantly, for themselves. By allowing some time to decompress, and with a newly acquired affection for the beautiful world that surrounds them, they come to understand that they do love each other. Living within nature makes everything seem clear. Can they go back into the world with the hope that things will change? Are they both ready for the next step?

A film about a place, its people and all the things that make life...life. Told through the eyes of ten different perspectives this is a film about love and relationships in the city. We follow Grace, a writer researching her new project. Weighed down with the guilt of her current relationship, and surrounded by the very things she’s attempting to write about yet also trying to avoid, Grace struggles with that burning question - what is love all about? Her research - a “I Saw You” column in a local magazine, allows her to dip into the lives of others also dealing with the very same thing. Funny, heart-warming, sometimes harrowing, we explore the concept of love. Whether it be nature, nurture, or in fact just science. Ten stories. Eight writers. Ten directors. One question... What is love all about?

Synopsis

The story of Terry, a woman with no life beyond the ones she finds in her period romance books, and how she is forced into the real world when a glib comment at work causes her to punch the office misogynist, Kier, in the face. While everything in her screams to apologise and restore the status quo of the office, she can’t help but notice that things are better for everyone after the punch. Maybe things shouldn’t go back to the way they were? Needing someone to confide in, Terry finds an unlikely ally in nerdy introvert neighbour, Ember, who challenges Terry to lean into this newfound fierceness. Fight for more changes, small as they may be. Even put down the demure romances and pick up some epic fantasy. In order for the shy and mousey Terry to stand her ground and champion the changes she wants to see in the office, she must step away from the wall and be like the main characters she finds in her books. And she needs to do so fast, because Kier wants a rematch. Fantasy begins to bleed into reality as the office becomes grounds for the ultimate battle.
