A cringe-inducing yet tender comedy-drama about awkward people fumbling through love and jealousy, with moments of raw emotion.

Tagline: John met the woman of his dreams. Then he met her son...
Overview: With John's social life at a standstill and his ex-wife about to get remarried, a down on his luck divorcée finally meets the woman of his dreams, only to discover she has another man in her life - her son. Before long, the two are locked in a battle of wits for the woman they both love-and it appears only one man can be left standing when it's over.
How it feels: Melancholic, tense, warm and earnest. Measured and needs your attention.
