Cass and Nick meet at a job interview, fall in love and first sight and spend what may be their second and last date driving across the US for the Christmas holdiays. Are we led by unseen forces? Is this love? Or just a road trip to remember?
MAJOR MINOR DETAILS is a romantic comedy road movie about the terror of love at first sight.
Cass and Nick, too old to be jumping in a car with someone they’ve just met, but too young to avoid love entirely, meet through a job interview. Their immediate chemistry, which Cass is quick to call love, prompts Nick to invite Cass on a road trip, something she purports to love. The very words “ROAD TRIP” send a thrill to Cass’s heart. But can the demands of cross-country travel hold up to the inevitable awkwardness of what’s basically a second date? A love story told out of order. Before Sunrise for grownups.
