FINDING EMILY

When a lovesick musician is given the wrong number for his dream girl, he teams up with a driven psychology student to find her. Together, they spark a hilarious campus-wide frenzy that tests their own hearts and ambitions along the way.

Finding Emily, Alicia MacDonald

Finding Emily (2026) is a hilarious, chaotic debacle of misunderstandings, mistaken identity and terrible decision making as Owen (Spike Fearn) searches for the girl that wrong numbered him. It has all the quirks of teen romcoms like Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging mixed with the manic-ness of British dramas like Skins and perfectly captures the spirit of being a university student. Nostalgic in the best way, Finding Emily is filled with laugh out loud moments yet still reminds us of the magic of falling in love.
