“It’s our honor to star in a movie that serves as Star Cinema’s comeback on the big screen. Here, you will see us portray characters that we’ve never done before,” the love team chimed during the movie’s grand media launch.

In Star Cinema’s comeback movie, Ayef (Belle) and Manny (Donny) reflect the view of this generation: a need for convenient love.

Ayef works in a 24-hour convenience store while striving to have an animation career in Singapore. On the other hand, Manny runs HalaManny, a plant boutique shop, and is also a secret social activist. After an unexpected meeting, they get along because of their shared belief in love – it is just another inconvenience. With the many sacrifices they already have on their plates, they agree to a contractual relationship but can they truly love with an expiration date?
