I’ve been keeping my eye out for this one, hoping someday it will appear on DVD since I missed the screening:

Days Together (US, 2011; 85 min.)
Director: Peter Monro
Days Together explores a young woman’s search for identity in love, the prospect of parenthood, and the comfort of family.
Alex is single and at a crossroads in her life as she watches her close friends settle down, get married, and have kids. A trail of numbing late night hook-ups and useless advice leads her to Paul, a drummer ready to leave Los Angeles for a simpler life.
Eager to escape the city for a while, Alex plans to drive up to Seattle to visit her sister, and decides to let Paul hitch a ride. The two new friends take on the road together, enjoying each other’s company and affections until they realize that they must both forge ahead on their own.
