Project Detail

A+D

Synopsis

When Alice and Dan meet their connection is undeniable; it's clear they are meant to be. But are they ready for each other? Confined in their small London flat, they magnify their differences, create conflict out of nothing, and slowly tear each other down.

A+D is a raw, edgy, and intensely intimate documentary-like examination of all the aspects of their romantic and sexual involvement. Unflinchingly exploring themes that challenge the idea of public versus private.

As Alice and Dan simply try to ‘get along’ we are reminded of our own failed loves, our own weaknesses, our own destructive patterns, all the while feeling like the lucky voyeur.
