Synopsis

Liam Bradley (Dylan Bruce), a romance novelist who has achieved significant success with three books published under the pen name Gabriel August, remains a mystery to his many readers. His first book was written as a means of coping after a failed relationship, and over time, he has grown disillusioned with writing romantic fantasy. This sentiment is noticed by Sophie Atkinson (Amy Acker), a kind but straightforward book reviewer, whom he meets by chance on a flight. The two begin a tentative relationship in Sophie’s hometown of Portland, Oregon, where Liam has traveled to find inspiration for his next novel. Liam's agent pressures him to fulfill a long-planned announcement revealing the true identity behind Gabriel August, but Sophie is unaware of his public persona. As Liam delays telling her the truth, the situation becomes increasingly complicated. The question remains whether their relationship can endure once his secret is revealed.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
