A multi-strand romantic comedy
It’s Disneyland for lovers; a place to indulge in a romantic fantasy world and pretend you’re the couple in that famous Robert Doisneau photograph. But if you fell in love with someone in Paris, could you trust your feelings? Would it have a real future? Or should you just get out of there and fall in love somewhere where it’s safe?
Three couples try to find the answer on New Year's Eve in the French capital.
There's a blind date, a 'one that got away' and a love at first sight. By morning they'll know.
The script started life as a series of short film ideas developed with my regular collaborator, director Francois Gandolfi. I then had the idea of weaving the stories into a multi-strand feature script.
The big breakthrough with this screenplay came when The Script Factory picked it up for their final Writers Passage West Midlands scheme. It received nine months of workshops and some intense development with Ludo Smolski, and finally some feedback from acclaimed producer Kevin Loader.
