Ursula is 35 years old, living and working in New York with a great career in marketing. But something is missing, with the dating apps she uses providing little more than superficial attractions which don't last.
Overhearing her dilemma, a stranger passes her the business card of a new dating agency, which offers an in-depth approach which they claim will guarantee your one true match for a lasting relationship.
After undergoing the intense week-long assessment process, Ursula is matched with Rafael, a 42 year old lawyer who has been badly hurt in love.
Initially their attraction is overwhelming and powerful, but before long they begin to question how well the process really works.
A relatable and intelligent romantic comedy with a touch of sci-fi, bringing to mind a loosely similar initial concept as The One by John Marrs. Although I'm not a fan of the cover, I found The Arc a compelling, humorous and razor sharp rollercoaster with great depth.
