LOVES: PAST. Relationships come, relationships go. Regrets, fond memories, or a desire to return to a previous love all come into play in this collection of shorts.

A young actor and actress both get callbacks for a film they auditioned for separately. It turns out they not only know each other, but were previously a couple. After a slightly awkward re-meeting, they have to read a scene that mirrors things they went through and said to each other as they were breaking up. Do they or do they not still have that certain chemistry?

It's Theo's birthday today and all he wants is to talk to his ex, Lucile. All she wants is to talk to him. In a serendipitous turn of events, they call each other at the same time and end up leaving each other a voicemail, saying more in one message than they would have ever said in one conversation.

34 days, 18 hours
