Synopsis
Meet Eros, a former Cupid who now spends his days as a disgruntled and repugnant street bum. He uses his gift of foresight to throw unwanted fortunes at those who pass him by. One day, he meets a peculiar young girl named Lily, a lone backpacker who carries a distinguished camera. Eros is fascinated by her off-kilter ways and carefree spirit, and together they embark on a journey across the stunning landscapes of England in search of truth, doctors, and maybe even a little bit of love. Through their adventures, Eros sees the world in a new light.

Sneak Preview
Did you enjoy the sneak peek video?
This project holds a special place in my heart, as it took six years of hard work to bring to life, starting from a single photo that ignited my imagination to the creation of an ambitious film with limited resources. I am incredibly grateful for the dedicated group of individuals who generously shared their time and energy to bring my story to life on the big screen. Their contribution was immeasurable, and I can never thank them enough. If this film resonates with you, we would love your support in spreading the word by liking, subscribing, or following us on social media. Your encouragement means the world to us.
