Paula needs to find love. Marcos is convinced she’s looking for it in all the wrong ways. With a podcast on the verge of cancellation and only thirty days to save it, Paula comes up with Project 24: twenty-four recorded dates to find a partner in front of thousands of listeners. It’s a brilliant idea. According to her. According to Marcos, the producer in charge of editing each episode, it’s a disaster waiting to happen and an insult to journalism. She’s impulsive, optimistic, and an expert at making bad decisions with enthusiasm. He’s methodical, perfectionistic, and far too honest to be likable. Working together should be impossible. And yet, as Paula accumulates awkward first dates, absurd conversations, and candidates who never turn out to be what they seem, the person who knows her best starts to become the one listening to every word on the other side of the glass. Because Marcos doesn’t just edit the podcast. He also sees everything Paula tries to hide. And when the dates start working, he realizes there’s something far worse than losing the show: watching her fall in love with someone else. A funny and addictive romantic comedy about second chances, irresistible tension, and the strange irony of searching for love everywhere except where it truly lies.
'And what are you looking for?' he asked at some point, stirring a coffee he hadn't drunk. He looked at me with eyes that seemed to ask for instructions, not connection.
Oh my god! 🤯 The audacity of this man thinking I am here to interview him while he monologues about his ex like it's the weather report! Itt is absolutely hilarious how clueless he is. 😂
She smiled to herself, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. It was the smile of someone who knows they are performing, even if the audience believes it is real.
And here we go with the 'self-aware performance' trope! 🤣 But wait... did the guy she's coplaining about even exiist? Or is he just a character in her own head drama?
"'Sorry!' he said, not stopping his pace, brushing past my shoulder with an enthusiasm I had not requested."
