Mia (Francis O’Connor - Mansfield Park), an ambitious film studies student, finds herself entangled in a web of relationships and miscommunications. Her housemate Alice (Alice Garner – Monkey Grip, Seachange) is a frustrated perfectionist, four years late with her thesis and looking for a man to fit her rigorous relationship criteria. Their search for love and a new housemate transcends the boundaries of the University and their respective disciplines. As the day ends and the party begins events begin to unscramble in unexpected ways. Omina Vincit Amor... Love Conquers All!
