Charming, passionate, totally irresponsible young novelist Werther is sent to the city on an errand by his mother. By chance, he meets lovely Charlotte, whose allure and commitment to her impressive, stable fiancé Albert will turn Werther’s life upside down. Werther and Charlotte embark on an emotional affair, while Werther and Albert start an awkward friendship. The more entwined this trio becomes, the harder it is to navigate the complexities of lust, affinity, and love.

A very charming reimagination of the story of Young werther. Great central performances. The dialogue was fun even do it at times felt a little on the nose. Cool to see Mike Ross outside suits. Wish this got more recognition
Mike Ross x Nikki Sixx goes hard 🔥
