Right Here Right Now

Theme: A movie about the interlocking lives and loves of six 
characters. Clearly the forties saw its youth obsessing over 
nationalism; the sixties youth did so over Marxist views and the new 
millennium showcases a new breed that obsesses over love and career.

This is a film about “Generation – Y” - About how we fall in and out of 
love in a country where thousands of people pass by each other every 
day, where strangers meet, where relationships come together and fall 
apart. The men and women of the story are driven by desire, searching 
for love and identity. These new-age kids are in no hurry to settle 
down and get married. They love the excitement of the dating game and 
the pursuit of a perfect lover and partner, in the underlying hope of 
eventually finding true love and happiness.


U.S.P: This is a fast, racy, roller-coaster comedy, which showcases the 
youth of our country, like it has never been seen before on scree
n. It 
will be punched with new age music that will resonate throughout the 
film, setting the pulse of this fast new generation that lives 
fearlessly for only themselves…for the pleasure of the moment - right 
here, right now. The film will be an exciting, young and fresh 
perspective on this fast growing metropolitan phenomenon… the world of 
“Generation Right Here, Right Now”

Regards,
