My Fake Boyfriend, directed by Rose Troche, follows a young man who, with help from his best friend, creates a fictitious boyfriend via social media to fend off his unpleasant ex. The situation complicates when he meets his true love and struggles to end the faux relationship.
Lonsdale carries this love story, even if it spends a little too much time focused on its outlandish premise & not enough time on the actual romance.
