What are we watching?
HONEYJOON is an award-winning indie film written and directed by Lilian T. Mehrel. A smart, sexy, laugh-out-loud emotional rollercoaster… about a family grief trip to a Portuguese island. The perfect date movie to inspire connection, deeper convos, and flirting. See what audiences say. It also won the world's biggest production award ($1mill) at Tribeca, and over 25 awards since, and has become an indie theatrical phenomenon. More about the film here, watch the trailer here, and follow @honeyjoonfilm for more.
Can I still come to the afterparty even if I didn't see the movie?
No. This is a singles event based on the shared experience of watching the movie together, so you have to have seen the movie screening with everyone else to attend.
Who is this for?
This specific singles event is currently for men-seeking-women and women-seeking-men between 25 to 40 years old. We hope to expand our offerings in the future!
How many people will be there?
Our event is capped at 40.
Should I come alone or bring a friend?
Either! Come solo and meet new people, or grab a single friend and come together.
Is this speed dating?
Nope. Watch a movie, grab a drink, and mingle naturally afterward. After the movie & Q&A, we'll start off with a lowkey film-Q&A-inspired mini-date-activity to help spark convos with new people, but since you just shared the experience of watching the movie together, you already have something in common to talk about : )
What is the Director Q&A?
Getting a glimpse behind the scenes of the film and themes makes this screening extra special. We'll have a brief Q&A with director Lilian T. Mehrel in-person after the screening, before we start mingling!
