[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=+1] Paper Heart

[/SIZE][/FONT] Studio: Overture Films
Director: Nicholas Jasenovec
Screenwriter: Nicholas Jasenovec, Charlyne Yi
Starring: Charlyne Yi, Michael Cera
Genre: Comedy, Documentary
MPAA Rating: PG-13 (for some language)
Official Website: PaperHeart-movie.com

Plot Summary: Charlyne Yi does not believe in love. Or so she says. Well, at the very least, she doesn’t believe in fairy-tale love or the Hollywood mythology of love, and her own experiences have turned her into yet another modern-day skeptic. "Paper Heart" follows Charlyne as she embarks on a quest across America to make a documentary about the one subject she doesn’t fully understand. As she and her good friend (and director) Nicholas search for answers and advice about love, Charlyne talks with friends and strangers, scientists, bikers, romance novelists, and children. They each offer diverse views on modern romance, as well as various answers to the age-old question: does true love really exist? Then, shortly after filming begins, Charlyne meets a boy after her own heart: Michael Cera. As their relationship develops on camera, her pursuit to discover the nature of love takes on a fresh new urgency. Charlyne risks losing the person she finds closest to her heart. Combining elements of documentary and traditional storytelling, reality and fantasy, "Paper Heart" brings a fresh perspective to the modern romance and redefines the classic love story.
