Synopsis

Jamie is lost. She's come to New York to visit her friend Samantha, but Samantha is nowhere to be found, and now Jamie is alone in the city. Charlie just quit his job, and isn't sure where he's going next. Their paths cross late at night on an empty subway platform, and from this chance encounter an unlikely connection is formed.
