Love May Still Be
Winter. A city on the eve of New Year’s. Storefronts decorated for the holidays. New Year’s Eve approaches. We all start to rush, trying to catch up on everything we’ve postponed throughout the year. And just then, at the publishing house where the main character works, a well-known plastic surgeon brings in his ‘masterpiece.’ One story among many — where the characters can’t change everything overnight. And yet, a ruined New Year’s Eve often turns out surprisingly well.
