Synopsis:
Thirty-something Adele is devastated after a painful breakup. With no close friends or family, her distant cousin, Rachel, reluctantly takes her in and graciously attempts to salvage Adele's personal and professional lives. Rachel finds her a job and suggests that Adele sleep with other men to get over her heartbreak. Adele bounces from one lover to the next in search of her perfect companion but can't escape the visage of her ex. Finally, she recognizes the man who may just hold the answer to her broken heart.

FILM MOVEMENT SERIES 
Each month the Whistler Public Library screens a foreign or art film that you will likely not be seen anywhere else.

Film Movement scours the world's top festivals including Cannes, Sundance, Toronto, and New York to select the best films from thousands of entries.

The films are unrated and are not recommended for children under the age of 18.  All films will be screened in their original language, with English subtitles.
