PICKING UP & DROPPING OFF

“Love doesn't always arrive on time.”

Divorced father Will and divorced mother Jane start to meet at Denver International Airport when picking up and sending off their children to ex-spouses for holidays and summer vacation. They both long for companionship and love while struggling with the reality of being single parents amid a series of missed opportunities and fears of rejection.
