1996, English. Directed by Tiffanie DeBartolo.
A dreamer who couldn't sleep. An author who couldn't write. A friend who couldn't help but help.
A girl with insomnia who works in a coffee house has impossibly high standards for her love and fears she will never meet a worthy man. Then in walks a new employee and they click - until she discovers he has a girlfriend. Undaunted, she moves to L.A. with a friend sure that he will dump the girlfriend and follow her. She puts all her faith in fate and hopes for the best.
