A young couple move in together, while a new acquaintance threatens to disrupt their lives. But that’s only the beginning. Things are about to get very, very complicated. From the writer of The Block Universe and The Wind in the Underground, You’re Not Special is a dark comedy about relationships, technology and the dangerous line between truth and fiction in the digital age.

Directed by Samantha Young with Kate Skinner, Ariadne Sgouros and Arkia Ashraf
