Perfect Sense

In Perfect Sense, a strange wave of sadness is sweeping the globe. People are breaking down in sobbing fits, but when they regain their composure, something has changed—they have lost their senses of smell and taste. Susan (Green) is a scientist in Glasgow who is studying this odd pandemic. Ever since suffering her own romantic heartbreak, she has thrown herself completely into her work. Michael (McGregor) is a successful and happily single chef at a restaurant near Susan's apartment. But when Susan and Michael meet, everything starts to change. They share an intensely emotional and erotic night just as the rest of the world is losing its sensory perception, and a serious relationship slowly blossoms. Are Susan and Michael's increasingly intense feelings for each other in spite of the epidemic, or because of it? (Tricia Spears)
