INSPIRED BY AN EXTRAORDINARY FRIENDSHIP.
Lily Trevino (Barbie Ferreira), who has a troubled relationship with her narcissistic father (French Stewart), comes across a Facebook profile of the same name and tries to make friends with this unknown Bob Trevino (John Leguizamo).
A drama-comedy that may seem hard to believe, but it was inspired by personal experiences from the writer-director’s life, teaching us that it is in fact possible to make friends across age and gender barriers.
The two leads craft beautiful performances, and this is ultimately a sweet tearjerker, in spite of its contrivances.
