Photo Flash: An Octopus Love Story

"What if falling in love with the wrong person was the best thing you've ever done? Jane and Danny, two drifting New Yorkers, identify themselves as gay…until their friendship catches their hearts off guard. A political protest against the ban on same-sex marriage ignites an unlikely and heartbreaking romance in An Octopus Love Story," state production notes.
