A diegetic musical in the vein of "Once" or "A Star Is Born," where all of the musical numbers are organic because the lead characters are musicians; cleverly executed on a small budget as a series of stripped-down music video style performances throughout the film. The original songs are all quite good and a few are bona fide earworms that I immediately looked up on Spotify.

The two leads (Omar Maskati and Malia Aiello) have great chemistry and writer/director Kahlil Maskati is more focused on posing big questions about legacy, purpose, and creative expression than simply delivering laughs or romcom hijinks - to the film's benefit!

This is such a charming film. A great original concept, great script and brilliantly directed. I love how it doesn't follow your typical and predictable rom com structure. This choice really grounds the movie in a reality where life sometimes won't give you exactly what you want just because were in a movie and need to satisfy a cliche ending.

I'm a tough audience member when it comes musicals since it always seems forced but all the music and songs in this are diegetic and weave so seamlessly in and out of the scenes. And the actors and direction are so great that there is a whole non verbal scene happening underneath the songs that deepen the character relationships to each other and themselves and further the story.

Omar Maskati is electric as Wardy and brings so much life to an already well written character. I could watch him watch paint dry and still be have a good time.
