Synopsis

A nameless businessman arrives by the coast for a meeting. When this is postponed at the final hour, he wanders aimlessly through a hip, young bohemian town and sticks out like a thumb-in-a-suit. He stumbles into a flea market and, whilst perusing its wares, spies a woman, Lily, who appears to be everything he feels he is not - youthful, modern, confident, brave and alive. After an initially awkward encounter, Lily agrees to be his 'tour guide' for the day, with the caveat that they reveal no trivial information about themselves, such as names or back-story; they should just enjoy their time together and keep an open mind. Through Lily's anti-romantic cynicism and the Man's mysteriously lovelorn air, the pair begin to find an unexpected common ground and mutual appreciation. They walk, talk, drink and smoke like it's the last day; they watch other couples interact; Lily introduces the Man to her friends, the music, the lights, the attitude and the night. They bond and break and fall in like. Yet when the light returns, are they destined to part the way they met … as strangers?
