- DirectorClinton CornwellStarsElizabeth Hirsch-TauberMichael James KellyChristopher Mychael WatsonA hyper-realistic diversion from the usual rom-com, "12 Months" candidly portrays moments that are commonly experienced but rarely shown as it follows the story of Ellie and Clark, a millennial couple, navigating the peaks and valleys of a new relationship. With a fully improvised script filmed chronologically in real-time monthly vignettes, "12 Months" takes the audience through the first date to the soul-bearing conversations, the hookups, the breakdowns, and the moments in between, however beautiful or painful they may be. Taking risks to include the portrait of a sometimes-awkward developing sexual relationship and not shying away from topics of sexism, racism, and mental health as they arise, "12 Months" is a love story rooted in the real world, not in a Hollywood fairy tale.
