A short film by Nathan Hale Williams
90 DAYS
Is love greater than our secrets?
Jessica (Teyonah Parris) and Taylor (Nic Few) have spent ninety days falling in love. As their relationship moves toward a deeper commitment, a deeply personal secret challenges everything they believe about love and each other. Based on a true story, the multiple award-winning 90 DAYS explores vulnerability, trust, and the courage it takes to be fully known.
Written by Nathan Hale Williams. Directed by Nathan Hale Williams and Jennia Fredrique Aponte. Starring Teyonah Parris, Nic Few, and Pauletta Washington.
The proof of concept
Two films. Two separate stories.
Love Will Save the Day is not a sequel to 90 DAYS, and it does not continue its story. It is an entirely new film, with new characters and a world of its own.
What the two share is a filmmaker and a conviction. 90 DAYS was the proof of concept: evidence that a love story about the hardest things to say can be romantic, funny, and wildly entertaining, never depressing, and that audiences will love it.
