#MODERN ROMANCE
It’s Valentine’s Day. Tired of oversized teddy bears and heart-shaped clichés. Then this is for you.
Skip the roses and step into a world of funny, messy, honest and sometimes dark romance. A dozen couples—some live, some on screen—share the ridiculous, charming, and occasionally outrageous ways they first collided. From innuendo-laced meet-ups to darkly comic mishaps, each couple delivers a punchline, a revelation you won’t find on a Valentine’s card, and pause for thought. It’s laugh-out loud, chaotic, and unapologetically human. Comedy that makes you reflect.
For those bored of sickly-sweet commerciality on 14th February, come find your antidote: relationships at their most unpredictable.
