My Friend Eva
Is love really all you need?
Directed by Cesc Gay
Produced by Imposible Films, Boavista Filmes
A romantic comedy about a middle-aged woman rediscovering passion and possibility through an unexpected encounter in Rome, balancing the warmth of rekindled desire against the complications of her established life.
Eva has just turned 50. She’s been married for over 20 years and has two, teenage children. So far, nothing remarkable. But on a business trip to Rome something happens that turns her life upside down. She meets Alex, a scriptwriter who’s spending a few days in the Italian city. The instant attraction she feels for him, the butterflies in her tummy, the seductive hint of possibility… After all this time, she remembers what it feels like to fall in love and it shifts something inside of her. It reignites a fire that had long been extinguished.
