As their passion ignites, each will find themselves on their own personal journey, trying to come to terms with their lives and losses. The bittersweet affair will bring them on a global ride from London to New York, Beirut and Havana, and it will force them to reevaluate their faiths, beliefs and, ultimately, each other.

The trailer for this film is TERRIBLE (at least the teaser is), but it is actually one of the best films I've seen in a long time. Definitely in my top two so far this year.

Okay, so where the hell is it?  No release date in sight (except a limited one on New York way back when), and no DVD release either.  Anyone have any ideas?

Aren't you in the Chicago area? It went through there towards the end of June.
