About

"A romcom that hates romcoms and means it"

Two self-absorbed, emotionally stunted people meet at a wedding and start a relationship neither of them believes in, mostly out of spite for romantic convention. What begins as an anti-romcom about awful people being awful together deepens into something surprisingly raw, tackling depression, trauma, and commitment with real honesty. The tone swings hard between vicious comedy and unexpected tenderness, carried by sharp writing and performances that make selfish characters weirdly endearing. It's funny, uncomfortable, and occasionally devastating in ways you won't see coming from the premise.

Watch it for

the way it sneaks genuine depth about depression and trauma into a caustic anti-romance.

Maybe skip if

you need likable leads or can't handle sudden tonal swings into real bleakness.
