True-life drama blends with cinematic romance when a lovelorn filmmaker attempts to win back his crush by recreating their fleeting romance on film. Adam and Kate only shared one night of passion together, but that was enough to make Adam fall head over heels in love. When Adam attempts to recapture that magical moment on film, Kate decides she's had enough of the relationship, and walks out on the production. Desperate, Adam searches San Francisco for another actress who can take Kate's place. But in the process of attempting to make their film, Adam and his crew realize that their interpretation of the past is far more interesting than the hard facts. Over the course of the following months the film took on a life of its own, gradually morphing into something far more honest and personal than Adam could have ever anticipated.
