COFFEEMATE

SYNOPSIS: An ordinary housewife who spends her afternoons people-watching in a quiet café strikes up an accidental friendship with a soft-spoken carpenter who frequents the same tables. Their arrangement is simple: meet only here, share anything and everything, but never call, text, or cross into each other’s real lives — until the rules they invented to protect themselves start to crumble under the weight of real feeling. It’s a hushed, bittersweet romance about intimacy built entirely in stolen, in-between moments.
