SYNOPSIS

Love...Reconsidered - A Comedy About Finding Yourself in the Strangest of Places Ruby (Sophie Von Haselberg) is a down-on-her-luck Manhattanite who can't seem to keep a boyfriend, a job, or get out of her parents house, though she aspires to be so much more. After she encounters quirky Golda (Elaine Bromka) in Central Park, she is handed keys to a consignment store in the Hamptons to manage.

Determined to be the GOOP-Michelle Obama-Boss Babe that can really make it out East, she attempts to make connections with an ex that wants to stay her ex, a charlatan disguised as Gwyneth Paltrow's bestie, and a variety of other Hamptonites with entangling stories that make up the framework of Ruby's new life. In the end, it is through her resiliency of spirit, a flavorful local community, and rejection of the seemingly rich and powerful that she finds the true prize: herself.
