What is the difference between loving madly and loving, madly? When two poets (Katie Holmes and Luke Kirby) meet in a treatment facility, they struggle to align the rhythms of their new found love, emotions, and creative pursuits. The dramatic highs and lows of their love story set against the diagnosis of bipolar disorder create a tension between their families (Christine Lahti, Griffin Dunne, Bruce Altman) who endeavour to help their adult children navigate a life that is both difficult and extraordinary. Paul Dalio's debut feature is informed by his own experiences, and a stunning filmic portrait of an illness that also gave the world such artistic geniuses as Vincent Van Gogh, Sylvia Plath, Ernest Hemingway, Charlie Parker, and Tennessee Williams.
