“What Love Is”, is a sincere, insightful and unapologetically frank romantic comedy about a man who finds out, during the course of one very important night in his life, what love truly is.The story opens on Tom Riley as he nervously has one drink at his neighborhood bar in order to steady himself before he heads home to ask his long-time girlfriend, Sara, if she will marry him. It’s Valentine’s Day and he’s got the ring, he’s got the flowers and now that he has his one drink, he’s got the courage. He tells his group of best friends at the bar to meet him at his house for a surprise celebration in half an hour then he grabs a bottle of champagne and heads home.

FILM PRODUCTION HIGHLIGHTS:
In order for us to execute the filming of the motion picture “What Love Is”, the film itself had to be a technical masterpiece, for in order to capture the closeness and the intimacy of this story, the film was shot almost entirely in one location…The living room of Tom’s house. And not since Lawrence Kasdan’s “The Big Chill” or Alfred Hitchcock’s - “Rope", has a film dared to be so bold. With a riveting, character driven story, brilliant dialog and an ending that everyone with a heart will not want to miss, “What Love Is".
