Somebody To Love
In January of 2020, everything is going well in Ellie’s life. She’s just started a placement she loves, and now she’s talking to the first girl she’s liked in a long time. Maybe her best friend Gale was right about downloading tinder!
On the other side of the screen is Abby, who in between their messages is rehearsing for her first big stage role and dealing with her agent Dante’s relationship problems. Life never seemed so perfect.
That is, until ‘COVID’ thing seems to go from bad to a full-on lockdown, that pulls every relationship into uncertainty. Surrounded by walls on all sides, Ellie and Abby face a difficult question, is their relationship strong enough to survive a pandemic, and come out the other side unscathed?
