Out of Focus - Santos Cristina

Can two people, brought together by chance and mutual need, overcome their differences and find a love that defies the odds?

Their meet-disaster cements them as frenemies, yet their intertwined circles force constant interactions, sparking tension and unspoken attraction.

When Charlie finds herself in LA grappling with her struggles with intimacy, she reluctantly turns to Rafael. In return, Rafael, desperate to complete a sentimental family project, seeks Charlie's meticulous assistance. As they work together, their barriers begin to crumble, finding themselves in unexpectedly intimate situations, their connection deepening with every shared moment.

Through heartfelt conversations and tender experiences, Charlie discovers that life with Rafael might hold the joy and fulfillment she never knew she was missing.

"Out of Focus" is a touching story of two individuals learning to embrace their differences, finding love and acceptance in the most unexpected places.
