Handen på Hjärtat / Out of Touch

Get ready to fall in love with Ava – a successful couples therapist in Stockholm who can offer razor-sharp relationship advice to others, but who has been unlucky in love herself. That’s because she has a secret power – when she puts her hand on someone’s chest, she can see their future love life. This makes dating impossible as she sees mistake after mistake ahead with every guy she touches (literally). She’s given up on love and resigned herself to a series of one-night stands, but when she accidentally glimpses her future wedding with an unexpected match, this cynic has to open her mind about what life and love could really be for her. Ava, played with effortless, playful charm by Sara Shirpey, immediately feels like a friend for whom the audience is rooting. This is not a superhero supernatural story, it’s a relatable and genuinely laugh-out-loud funny look at modern love through the eyes of one complicated young woman, and it offers a breath of fresh air in the romantic comedy genre. We will screen the full series.
