The Falling in Love Montage is a flirty and emotional coming of age romance. Saoirse isn’t looking for a relationship, she has enough on her plate being the school’s token out lesbian and offering “experimental” kisses for straight girls. Plus she spends almost every day visiting her mom in a day care facility for early onset Alzheimer’s. When she meets Ruby, her world and her priorities shift, and she finds a loophole for her no dating rule: just a falling in love montage! The girls have a plan to spend the Summer together before Ruby moves back home in the fall.

I’ll let you determine if it’s a happy ending, or not!
