H.L is a heartfelt story of friendship, ambition, and the quiet struggle to make dreams come true. Set in a small, cluttered apartment in England the story follows two university students, Hannah Levy and Harriet Loynd, who are navigating the complexities of their respective art forms - dance and acting - while living side by side in the same chaotic, creative space.
Hannah is a passionate dance major whose expressive, free-spirited approach to movement often fills their tiny apartment with music and energy. Her dream of becoming a professional dancer is threatened by self-doubt and the pressure to succeed. Harriet, an aspiring actress with an intense focus on her craft, is preparing for an important audition that could change her future. While they are both ambitious and fiercely dedicated, they each wrestle with their insecurities and fears about not being enough.
The story explores the deep bond between the two friends, their shared moments of doubt, and the quiet ways they support each other through the challenges of their respective careers. Whether it's offering a word of encouragement or simply being there during moments of uncertainty, Hannah and Harriet lean on one another in their shared journey of self-discovery and artistic growth. Ultimately, H.L is a celebration of friendship - the kind that lifts you up when you fall, cheers you on when you succeed, and believes in you even when you don't believe in yourself.

DAMON
He's magnetic and mercurial, with a hare trigger temper and hoards of friends. People orbit him like he's the sun.
ANNIE
She's shy and reserved, and would much rather spend time with her knitting needles than with other people.
They couldn't be more different, but Damon and Annie have been best friends since they were kids. She's the only person who can get through to him when he's in one of his infamous tempers, and he's one of the very few people in the world with whom she can be herself.
But they're just friends. Best friends, but still just friends - that's it, nothing more. Yeah, sure, Damon's strikingly attractive and would do anything for the few people he loves, but he's also moody and intense and...weirdly possessive of her.
Then, Damon does something that leaves Annie feeling hurt and betrayed, and for the first time ever she wonders if it's time to put her friendship with Damon in her rearview mirror.
But Damon won't let Annie go that easily. Stubborn and determined, he'll do whatever it takes to claw his way back into Annie's good books. And this time, he's not stopping at best friends, because he wants more. Much more.
And Damon always gets what he wants.
