Synopsis
Follow your heart & give love a shot.
Based on a true story, Love & Vodka is a romantic dramedy with a heartfelt, dramatic twist. Bobby, a high school film teacher and fledgling screenwriter, recalls the magic of 2018 when he falls in love with Katya, a Ukrainian exchange student. Bobby impulsively travels to Ukraine to propose to her and meet her family -- discovering unexpected relatives, uproarious laughter, and a romance that transcends borders.
Completion date: March 2025.
Note: The film script was inspired by a true story that now high school teacher, R.J. Fox, experienced over twenty years ago in 2001. A young, awkward, and hopeful screenwriter dreaming of his goals in Hollywood ran into a different destiny when he met a Ukrainian exchange student.
