Plot
Adam and Seta fall in love after meeting in a Brooklyn laundromat. She suffers from Lupus, while he is stuck at home caring for his chronically ill father. Both lie to avoid having to reveal they are anything but perfect. Eventually, their deceit unravels and they are faced with a choice: walk away or try to save the relationship. Deciding to give it one last chance, Adam and Seta reveal everything about who they really are despite the fact that they may not love one another once they know the truth.
