Imagine Me & You

Who else is sitting alone at home, wondering where to find the true love, or just being bored by all these ordinary people?

Good news for you: You are not alone! And finally found an amazing queer movie you are going to love!

Imagine Me & You was published in 2005 and is a comedy-drama movie. 

During her wedding ceremony Rachel notices Luce and feels instantly drawn to her. She still decides to marry her fiance Heck but just can't stop thinking about this particular girl.

Luce knows that she is a lesbian and tries to push down her feelings for Rachel to save her marriage. Although Rachel is happy with Heck she continues spending time with Luce while she is unstoppable falling for her. As she questions her sexuality, Rachel must decide between her stable marriage with Heck and her feelings for Luce.

So, what makes this movie so special?

Well, I love that all of the characters are very realistic and well written. The plot is thought-out and - SPOILER - it has a happy end. 

I can't put in words how happy I feel right now because of watching it but I hope that I could convince you to watch it.

What is your opinion about it? Have you already seen it? What is your favorite LGBTQ movie?
