Summary

What if their dreams became what they looked forward to all day? An out-of-time love story that crosses the boundaries of dreams and the barriers of lockdown. Lior is a young Californian who consumes love by swiping on his smartphone, while looking for The One. Following the Covid-19 outbreak, he decides to go with his friends to the Lake Tahoe during the lockdown. A few weeks later, Lior has a dream. A very strange dream. Too realistic. He decides to tell his friends about it. In his dream, he meets Julian. A very attractive man. Their encounter is like in a movie. The kind of chance meeting Lior has always fantasized about, and much more exciting than a match on a dating app in the real world. But, despite his excitement, the alarm on his phone ends the dream and his romance with Julian. What he doesn't yet know is that this dream is just the beginning of a long story. A novel imagined as a Netflix series or a movie, to be binge-read. "Meet Me Tonight" is a modern story between romance and science fiction. Gay, bi or straight, each of us is Lior and can relate to his story.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

On November 17, 2019, China was hit with a new disease that didn’t not take long to spread to the rest of the world. A few months later, Europe and the US launched their first waves of lockdowns to try to control the spread of this unknown virus. In San Francisco, after the authorities announced the mandatory quarantine, Lior and his friends decided to leave the city overnight, without knowing how long the new mobility restrictions would last.

Everyone will remember it. An unexpected event for which no one was prepared and that had marked the whole world. Some stayed at home, others left their apartments and houses. Some had to adapt in order to continue working, while others experienced more complicated professional situations. Creativity in all its forms exploded. The questioning allowed many personal reflections and fed many discussions.
