Kissing Jessica Stein

KISSING JESSICA STEIN is a fresh take on the subject of sex and the single girl. When we first meet Jessica – a sensitive but neurotic New York journalist – she is at the end of her emotional rope. Her brother’s engaged, her best friend’s pregnant, she hasn’t dated in a year, and she can’t sleep.
After an optimistic but nightmarish dating spree, she happens upon an intriguing personal ad, whose only drawback is that it’s in the ‘women seeking women’ section. On a daring whim, she decides to answer it. She meets funky downtown hipster Helen Cooper for drinks and, to her surprise, they click instantly. Their evening of banter, connection and heated debate culminates in a kiss that confounds and intrigues even the reluctant Jessica.
With conventional gender roles absent, the two women proceed to muddle through an earnest, but hilarious courtship, making up the rules as they go along. KISSING JESSICA STEIN is a modern romantic comedy that breaks all the rules -- it blurs the lines between friendship and romantic love, and finds the funny, surprising and ultimately poignant overlap between the two.

Imagine Me & You

A refreshingly unconventional and witty comedy about love's myriad forms and constant surprises, IMAGINE ME & YOU begins as a young bride discovers love at first sight on the day of her wedding.
In a singular moment of sudden awakening on the altar, everything changes for Rachel -- played by Piper Perabo in a lively departure as a quintessentially modern British woman when she is suddenly forced to reconsider the meaning of happily ever after on entirely new terms moments before her honeymoon has even started.
When Rachel shows up at the church on what promises to be a fairy-tale wedding day, she is thrilled to be devoting herself for life to her long-time sweetheart and best friend, Heck (Matthew Goode). That's when the unthinkable happens. In a moment that overturns everything in which she thought she believed, Rachel catches the eye of a complete stranger, the wedding's florist (Lena Headey), and like a bolt from the blue, recognizes her soul mate. Though she moves ahead with the marriage, something has profoundly changed. Everything about life is suddenly in question; and Rachel and her brand new husband are thrust into a journey that is at once disarmingly funny, decidedly bittersweet and definitely familiar to anyone who has ever fallen -- for better or for worse -- under love's intoxicating spell.
