DO YOU BELIEVE IN SOUL MATES?
A SHERIDAN BFTV ROMANTIC COMEDY
SYNOPSIS
Working his first day at Cupid Inc, Connor is eager to get started and spread love. To earn his wings he is tasked by his condescending boss, Alice – with an efficiency-first approach to love, – to travel to the real world and stop a married couple, Jonah and Marissa, from breaking up during their couples counselling session. The catch is, if he fails, he not only doesn’t get his wings, but loses his job and everything he’s worked for in the process. At the counselling session, Connor, invisible as all Cupids are, begins to understand exactly where their relationship went wrong by witnessing their interactions and conversations. With Alice pressing him to make a decision to get his wings or be fired, Connor grapples with his morals against getting the position he’s always wanted.
