A drama. A comedy. A romance with an edge. Your life can be turned upside down in a day.

One ordinary morning, young struggling musician Ashley Branstead (Lorraine Pilkington) suffers a shocking encounter with a stranger.

This disturbing assault inadvertently triggers what becomes a very intriguing day with another stranger, her apparent knight in shining armour, seemingly genuine Â– but odd- Michael (Finlay Robertson).

By his subtle and not so subtle persuasions Ashley finds herself spending an enchanting but unusual day with the spontaneous Michael, quickly becoming captivated by his generosity and charm. But all is not as it seems.

Ashley begins to suspect that his actions might have an ulterior motive. Who is the mysterious stranger? What are his true intentions and who is he acting for?

When his secret is eventually revealed the truth threatens to destroy their whirlwind romance.

Some days you wish had never started, then along comes one you hope will never end. Anything can happen in a day.

wonderful movie

first of all, this movie is just so much fun. it made me smile all the way through.

then, the acting is wonderful - both the 2 leads and the minor characters.

the story is diverse: easy conversation and traveling about London, several intense scenes all related in some way to bullying. some good lessons on how to stand up to bullies. a plot twist, a satisfying ending.

then, the soundtrack is just great. and the cinematography is beautiful.

it's a movie i can recommend to anyone and expect they'll love it too. a perfect 10.
