Three relationships. Three disasters. One last chance...
A thirty-something Manhattan dad is in the midst of a divorce when his
10-year-old daughter, Maya, starts to question him about his life
before marriage. Maya wants to know absolutely everything about how
her parents met and fell in love: Will's story begins in 1992, as a
young, starry-eyed aspiring politician who moves to New York from
Wisconsin in order to work on the presidential campaign. For Maya,
Will relives his past as an idealistic young man learning the 'ins'
and 'outs' of big city politics, and recounts the history of his
romantic relationships with three very different women. Will
hopelessly attempts a gentler version of his story for his daughter,
and changes the names so Maya has to guess who is the woman her father
finally married. Is her mother Will's college sweetheart, the
dependable girl next door Emily? Is she his longtime best friend and
confidante, the apolitical April? Or is she the free-spirited but
ambitious journalist Summer? As Maya puts together the pieces of her
dad's romantic puzzle, she begins to understand that love is not so
simple or easy. And as Will tells her his tale, Maya helps him to
understand that it's definitely never too late to go back--and maybe
even possible to find a happy ending.
