SINGLE
Ashley Eakin
SINGLE is a relatable, anti-romantic comedy that delivers an entertaining and insightful examination of human connection that also challenges preconceived notions of life with a disability. Kim, born with one arm, gets set-up on a blind date with Jake who has discovers has one hand...and she is pissed!
I love this film. Funny and cynical, Kim shows us what it’s like to date with a physical disability. She’s got so much attitude and spunk and I want her to be my best friend. SINGLE will make you laugh, but more importantly, make you consider what it’s like to be viewed as your disability before your character. — Jillian C (Programmer)
