Rye Lane is a charming take on the modern-day rom-com, based in South London, following two young people as they fall in love while finding themselves in the process.
Dom and Yas are both reeling from bad break-ups, who connect over the course of an eventful day in Peckham – as they help each other deal with their nightmare exes. The more they learn about each other, the more they are drawn together as they go through various encounters with their past loves and acquaintances.
Marking Raine Allen-Miller's feature directorial debut, Rye Lane is a wonderful homage to Peckham and the surrounding areas; bringing to life its history, its people and its multicultural influences through what critics are touting to be one of the best rom-com stories of the decade.
