“Har'el is doing things in this movie that I haven’t seen before. And that’s thrilling."Flavorwire

Winner, Best Documentary, Karlovy Vary International Film Festival

A beguiling nonfiction exploration of the challenges that love can present and how our past and present experiences shape the decisions we make when the fantasy of True Love dissipates. Using cinematic expressions of past memories and possible futures, the film also examines non-fiction performance as a documentation of truth and a purveyor of memory. Following three surprising love stories in starkly different American landscapes, we dive into the mysterious, the familiar, the dysfunctional, and the imaginary aspects of their relationships. "LoveTrue" is a poetic roller-coaster down the inevitable nature of our shifting perspective on love. Directed by Alma Har'el, best known for her documentary Bombay Beach, which took the top prize at Tribeca Film Festival in 2011.
