Melissa Kent is a well-known name in the industry as a highly respected film editor and although she may not be known to the general public, her work certainly is. Kent's filmography includes The Age of Adaline, The Vow, The Virgin Suicides and the upcoming American Pastoral starring Ewan McGregor. Now lending her skills as a director to a short film that allows us to enjoy the very first date of Bernie and Rebecca, this entertaining film will have its U.K. premiere at the prestigious Edinburgh Film Festival.

A blind date offers remarkable insight into the shape Bernie and Rebecca's life together will take, encompassing love, family, BETRAYAL and ultimately growing old together.

The music was composed by David Carbonara (Mad Men), cinematography is by Nicole Whitaker (Homeland) and the sound was designed by Christopher S. Aud (Mad Max: Fury Road, Neighbors). Kent produced alongside Mary Pat Bentel (Animals, Goodbye World).
