Plot

Adam and Seta fall in love after meeting in a Brooklyn laundromat. She suffers from Lupus, while he is stuck at home caring for his chronically ill father. Both lie to avoid having to reveal they are anything but perfect. Eventually, their deceit unravels and they are faced with a choice: walk away or try to save the relationship. Deciding to give it one last chance, Adam and Seta reveal everything about who they really are despite the fact that they may not love one another once they know the truth.

Production

Principal photography was shot over a 16-day span (with two pick-up days) on location in Brooklyn, primarily in the Park Slope neighborhood with additional scenes shot in Williamsburg.

The film was shot with the Panasonic HVX200 with the SGPro 35mm lens adapter using Canon prime lenses.
