Choose Me

In the restless hours after the city’s lights dim, a modest bar called Eve becomes a quiet sanctuary for those who feel most alive after dark. The neon glow and the low murmur of late‑night conversations give the place an intimate, almost conspiratorial atmosphere, where strangers drift together and the ordinary is tinged with a hint of mystery. It is a world that feels both familiar and slightly off‑kilter, a backdrop that encourages confession and conceals longing beneath the hum of cheap whiskey and dimmed bulbs.

​Mickey arrives fresh from a mental hospital, his mind a collage of stories that others have dismissed as fabrications. He wanders the streets of Los Angeles seeking a woman named Eve, and the bar’s name pulls him in like a magnet. Restless yet hopeful, his presence adds a fragile edge to the nocturnal rhythm, hinting at deeper questions of identity and trust that he carries like a suitcase of memories.

​Eve herself is the bar’s proprietor, a former call girl who bought the establishment after a tragedy scarred its former owner. Though she runs the nightly haven with a practiced ease, she is haunted by a series of broken romances and a lingering skepticism that love might always slip through her fingers. Her guarded demeanor masks a yearning for connection, and the bar becomes both her shield and her possible bridge to something steadier.

​Dr. Nancy Love is a French‑accented radio talk‑show host whose relationship advice reaches listeners far beyond the studio. When she answers an ad for a roommate and moves into Eve’s house, she brings a voice of reason, romance, and quiet observation to the night‑owl trio. Her calm, almost clinical curiosity about the people around her offers a counterpoint to the bar’s raw emotional undercurrents, suggesting that even the most cynical hearts might find a moment of honesty under the spell of twilight.
