In a desperate act to heal their broken hearts, two girlfriends vow to give up sex for a year only to discover that true love has no timeline.
After her divorce, Luna’s life is unraveling as she struggles to overcome the narcissistic abuse that haunts her mind. With her newly discovered bisexuality, she’s looking for “love” in all the wrong places. Meanwhile, 40-year-old Lily finds herself single again after a broken engagement. She’s ready to forsake her faith, finding love and her virginity. These two best friends embark on a journey to heal : Lily devotes herself to overcoming religious shame while Luna joins a therapy group to battle the ghosts of her past. But when their perfect matches show up, their commitment to stay abstinent is put to the test, along with their friendship.

Also in This Series
Free screenings showcasing six of the best Romanian films from the last couple of years.
The Yellow Tie
Kicking off a mini-festival of Romanian (and Romanian-Canadian) films, all screening for free, this impressive biopic of the renowned (but never recorded — at his insistence) Romanian conductor Sergiu Celibidache was directed by his son.
The Law School Gang
Seven law students, bound by a strong friendship, face life-changing challenges as they unite to help a colleague's sick daughter, discovering sacrifice, loyalty, and the true meaning of solidarity.
The World is My Arena
This is the true story of George Balta, a rugby player paralyzed in an accident, who reinvents himself as a wheelchair marathoner and motivational speaker, and who plays himself in the film.
Mihnea
Mike Doaga wrote, directed and edited this independent Canadian film, and also plays the central character, Mike (or Mihnea, as he was christened). Mike is studying neuroscience while driving a party bus for his overbearing Romanian-born dad's business.
Horia
Restless teenager Horia takes off on his father's old motorbike in a cross-country journey to reunite with his love. On the road, he is joined by Stela, a sassy 13-year-old, and an unlikely friendship blooms.
