Is it possible to create a love drug?
Connie and Tristan are volunteers on a drug trial. As they fall for each other, they are forced to question if their connection is real or the side effect of an unpredictable antidepressant. Their sudden romance creates disruption for the two supervising doctors, who are already navigating their fractured personal history alongside the trial’s troubling ethics.
Internationally acclaimed writer and University of Sheffield Alumni, Lucy Prebble, blurs the line between love as a chemical or emotional response through her script’s wit and heartbreak.
