WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Rosie (Collins) and Alex (Claflin) have been best friends since they were five years old, and their friendship remains strong as they grow into young adults. However, when life gets in the way of their special bond – from a college education overseas to an unexpected pregnancy – they must do whatever it takes to maintain what they have together – and possible something even more…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Based on the best-selling book Where Rainbows End by Cecelia Ahern, the resulting adaptation Love, Rosie is an engaging and – let’s be honest – slightly more realistic take on the young romance genre that could potentially break the mould and be something completely new.
