A sophisticated Manhattan woman navigating the anxieties of late thirty-something life unexpectedly falls for a charming, free-spirited painter significantly younger than herself – a complication intensified by his connection to her perceptive and wryly observant therapist. This isn’t a conventional romantic comedy; it’s a sharply observed exploration of arrested emotional development, fueled by the protagonist's insistent desire to reconcile romantic fulfillment with a ticking biological clock, and the unsettling realization that finding love might mean confronting uncomfortable truths about generational expectations and self-perception. The film subtly dismantles tropes around age-gap relationships, portraying a vulnerable woman grappling with independence and societal pressures, while navigating a flirtation laced with both genuine affection and a distinctly neurotic energy. The dynamic with her therapist adds a meta-textual layer, creating a playfully anxious atmosphere as the boundaries between professional guidance and personal life become delightfully blurred.
