Manhattan Romance
Directed by Tom O'Brien
Produced by Beacon Films Inc.
A warm, character-driven romantic comedy about a filmmaker caught between romantic fantasy and genuine connection, exploring contemporary Manhattan relationships with humor and insight.
Danny, a commercial editor and documentary filmmaker attempts to finish his film, a study on relationship while navigating the relationships in his own life. Will he continue to chase the unattainable Theresa a hippy new age dancer(Caitlin Fitzgerald) or will he finally admit he's in love with his best friend Carla (Katherine Waterston) who is in an unfulfilling relationship with a political strategist(Gaby Hoffman). Manhattan Romance is a funny insightful look at contemporary life in Manhattan. It explores new age ideas and open relationship as well as true friendship and connection.
