About the Movie
Owen (Spike Fearn) is a clumsy, hopelessly romantic indie musician from Manchester who connects deeply with a mysterious woman one night, only to realize the next morning that her phone number is missing a vital final digit. Driven to find her, he searches the local university campus and teams up with Emily (Angourie Rice), a sharp and goal-oriented American psychology student. Unbeknownst to Owen, Emily has an ulterior motive for helping him: she plans to secretly use his romantic obsession as a real-life case study for her thesis to prove that being in love is just temporary insanity.
The mission spirals into absolute digital chaos when Owen accidentally emails every single student named Emily at the university, turning himself into a viral campus meme overnight. As they navigate hilarious dead ends, disastrous encounters with the wrong Emilys, and the sudden pressure of internet fame, their unexpected partnership begins to shift. Through the madness of the tech-era search, Owen and Emily are forced to question their own cynical and romantic views, realizing that the destiny they were chasing might be standing right next to them.
