A Perfect Man

After a video of two students cavorting on the street went viral in 2015, society laughed and the news cycle moved on. In a city of 7 million people, we follow two young lovers on their quest to find a space of their own.

Call girl Ruby dates men for pay. Arrested, she seeks help from a lawyer client. He advises her to seek letters of mitigation from people with high social status, and to play along with the probation officer. By performing an act of penitence, Ruby may be given a more lenient sentence. The lies she tells the officer, initially mere tales to solicit sympathy, slowly reveal a heartbreaking story of someone let down by adults all her life.
