Love in the Digital Age? Indie Film Something Casual Explores LA’s Intimacy Crisis at Dances With Films Premiere

Prepare for a dose of raw truth about modern romance in the city of angels. Independent feature film Something Casual is set to make its highly anticipated world premiere at the prestigious Dances With Films Festival at the iconic TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. This captivating film dives headfirst into the bewildering world of dating in Los Angeles, where the desperate yearning for connection often clashes with an inability to forge anything real.

Written and directed by the fiercely independent filmmaker Brandon Buczek, Something Casual follows the unlikely journey of two star-crossed lovers as they navigate this chaotic landscape. Meet Alex, portrayed by Nico Greetham (American Horror Story, Love Victor), a headstrong Latino artist whose unwavering belief in romance clashes with the cynicism of Frankie portrayed by Piper Curda (May December) with captivating complexity. Frankie firmly believes that love is nothing more than a chemical delusion.

As their paths intertwine, Alex and Frankie find themselves drawn to each other despite their opposing views. The film brilliantly captures the awkward first dates, the ghosting, the endless scrolling, and the genuine moments of connection that flicker amidst the noise of modern dating. Shot entirely on location in the vibrant and diverse backdrop of Los Angeles, Something Casual offers an authentic glimpse into the city’s complex relationship with love and intimacy.

Brandon Buczek’s dedication to independent filmmaking shines through in every frame of Something Casual, proving that powerful storytelling and compelling performances can thrive outside the studio system.

Don’t miss your chance to witness the world premiere of this thought-provoking and entertaining film that captures the zeitgeist of modern dating in Los Angeles.
