Dear Luke, Love, Me.
A true When Harry Met Sally for a new generation, Dear Luke, Love, Me is a story of Penny and Luke, two best friends, who find love in unconventional ways. We watch these two music-loving tree-huggers grow from college freshmen to adults. We peek into pockets of time to see their otherworldly friendship turn to romance, turn to friendship again, all while they discover who they are. But while Luke grapples with his asexual identity, mental health, and pressures from the outside heteronormative world, their once-perfect friendship starts to fissure, and Penny begins to lose herself in salvaging the one thing in the world she can’t bear to lose. Dear Luke, Love, Me explores the nuances of asexuality, the importance of male to female platonic bonds, and the terrible beauty of growing up and the inevitable changes it brings. This immensely humanizing film is a true ode to love, friendship, and soulmates of all kinds. After all, love is a pretty big word to fit inside such a small box.
