Story:  Behind every great love story, there are three stories: his, hers and the truth. Alan and Tanya meet on a blind date when they’re both fresh out of college. The date is disastrous as these two are the furthest thing from compatible. Alan is self-centered and cocky, and Tanya is a self-assured, independent career woman. They part ways only to reconnect many years later. This time they both mutually agree to be platonic friends. This doesn’t last long as they begin dating. Things fall apart as Alan can’t put aside his narcissistic ways long enough to form a genuine bond. They again part ways. Alan immediately realizes how much he misses Tanya and how much he needs her in his life. He bends over backwards in an attempt to win her back.  Source:  hishersthetruth.com, official site; Blackfilm.com.
