Promoted by an old magazine article, Ester is going to seek out her exes to see if any of them could have been the one; A premise that is equal parts hilarious (because it isn’t actually you doing it and they aren’t your exes) and cringe inducing (because it’s immensely relatable and you can’t help reflecting on what it would be like if it was you and your exes). As much about friendship as it is about love, Vine contemplates what makes a great life in a fast paced, light, & amusing way reminiscent of Bridget Jones, Angus, Things and Full Frontal Snogging, and Ghost of Girlfriends Past.
