Many fundraisers later, Marcela found herself at the feet of Al Gore, the world's #1 environmental superstar, and her lifelong crush. Love in the Time of Taksim is a story of a jaded idealist who sets off on a quest to get a ring and sound the alarm about Earth's destruction, only to tumble into a budding civil war, lose her man and find another. Join her, and all the characters, risking their lives for what's worth fighting for: love; love for freedom, democracy, love for life as we know it, and love between two people Trailer: https://vimeo.com/223926780
