beyond a shooting star

"What did you wish for?"
"I didn't wish for anything, a star will not change my fate"
"And if it could change something? What would you want?"
"I want to be enough"
"I want to be known forever."

1986
In desperate attempts to change himself, 20 year old Ethan moves to London, leaving everything, including himself, behind. In the midst of the chaotic city he meets Rue who is everything that he is not. While she is doing everything to be known, he tries as hard as he can to forget who he really is.
A complicated relationship unfolds as the two of them see all that they try to escape in one another. As repulsion and attraction take their turns, the two of them discover that there is something more beyond their differences, something they reflect upon each other; the desire to fulfill a wish.
