Shot chronologically in real-time monthly vignettes, 12 Months is a hyper-realistic diversion from the standard polished rom-com, closely following the story of millennial couple, Ellie and Clark, as they navigate the peaks and valleys of a new relationship.
12 Months takes audiences through the first date to the soul-bearing conversations, the hookups, the breakdowns, and the moments in between, however beautiful or painful they may be, confidently portraying many moments that are commonly experienced but rarely shown, taking risks to include the sometimes-awkward candid portrait of a developing sexual relationship and not shying away from real issues like sexism, racism, and mental health as they arise. 12 Months is a love story rooted in the real world, not a Hollywood fairytale.
