The film received critical acclaim, with praise for Jonsson's and Oparah's performances, the film's direction, style, and originality. Plot In South London, Yas encounters Dom crying in a gender-neutral toilet at an art exhibition about mouths organised by their mutual friend Nathan. They meet again in the exhibition, and walk through the Rye Lane Market together, bonding immediately over their shared connection. Dom was recently cheated on by Gia, his girlfriend of six years, with his best friend Eric and has moved back in with his parents. Dom meets with Gia and Eric at a restaurant for the first time since the breakup; Yas joins them, posing as Dom's new lover. They pretend to have met while singing karaoke, and leave Gia bewildered. Dom and Yas have lunch at a tortilla shop. Yas reveals she has recently broken up with her boyfriend Jules, with his propensity to not wave at tourists on boats being a red flag for her. When Yas recounts that she has forgotten her copy of A Tribe Called Quest's The Low End Theory at Jules's flat, Dom proposes that they steal her record back. They visit Jules's mothers' house in order to retrieve a key to his flat, but when Dom is caught going through a panty drawer by Jules's mothers, he is kicked out. Outside, Yas admits she started hanging out with Dom at first because she felt sorry for him, but came to enjoy their time together and even turned down a job interview that afternoon.
