MICHIGAN PREMIERE. Dina is a modern woman living on the autism spectrum who loves both her independent life and her fiancé Scott, a Walmart greeter with Asperger syndrome. Framed through a cinema vérité lens, Dina and Scott navigate the usual troubles that all couples face, from moving in together to planning a wedding, with charm and warmth. They have different ideas of what a “last night of freedom” should entail – Dina opts for raunchy male strippers while Scott chooses a quiet night of bowling with the guys – but both want a fresh start together, equally devoted to each other and their relationship. Winner of the U.S. GRAND JURY PRIZE – DOCUMENTARY at the 2017 SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL, this unconventional love story takes an intimate, tender look at a couple that is not seen often on the big screen.
