“New York, I Love You” is a film about Viviane, a neurotic, struggling actress given to childish flights of fancy. Kazembe, her actor ex-boyfriend, has been the only constant in her life for the past four years until their recent breakup. On a whim, V decides to move to Los Angeles to revive her dwindling career. She thinks she can just skip out of town, until her best friend Sophie plans a surprise party and invites Kazembe.
The film takes us on Viviane’s journey through love, loss, and goodbyes in snapshots of a dying relationship set against the backdrop of one of the world’s most beloved cities. But can Viviane really leave New York and Kazembe, the love of her life, behind? Watch and find out!
