In the wake of a brief, but intense relationship with Shaina, David struggles to find the same connection with Cara, Shaina's former best friend.

FEATURE PRESENTATION - Finally, Lillian and Dan (Cambridge, MA) 2008. Dir: Mike Gibisser. Cast: Gretchen Akers, Jason Kean, Lucy Quinn. Finally, Lillian and Dan offers a meditation on young love and its delicacy, its hope and exhilaration, as well as its loneliness and naiveté.
