So My Grandma's a Lesbian!

2019, Edinburgh (Scotland). Eva is a Spanish successful lawyer who is promised to marry Stuart, heir of the aristocratic and wealthy clan Macdonald. But the same day that they announce the engagement, she receives a call phone of her grandmother Sofía to make another announce: her incoming wedding with Celia, her lifelong friend. Taking it as a serious danger for her plans to have an important place in the world because the Macdonald's conservative morality (in the hope to have a normal life faraway of her eccentric family), Eva moves Lanzarote in Canary Islands (west to Africa but belonging Spain) in an attempt to prevent the wedding. Helped by a stranger after to lose the bus at the airport, Eva backs home where she reunites with Sofía, Celia and Perla, Eva's mentally disabled cousin who lives in the house cared by her aunt Sofía. At the same time that Eva's mother Natasha appears to support Sofía with the wedding, the family is surprised by the visit of Said, Eva's stranded brother who has converted to Islam to marry Salima. While Celia talks with the town priest Bienvenido trying for convincing to officiate the wedding and revealing that Pope Francisco approves the union after she met when visited Rome time ago, Eva learns that the stranger who helped her is Jorge, Celia's late son who works as anthropologist in Virunga (Congo), meeting him by first time after nine years ago. More used to treat with gorillas than humans, Jorge is an outcast and unsure young man who deals with Eva and Bienvenido to stop the wedding, specially after Celia's claiming about Pope Francisco, with the opposition of Nathasha and Said. However, Jorge starts to change the idea seeing Celia's happiness, facing Eva about the real reasons to stop the wedding. As if it not were enough, bad news appear to complicate the situation: Said and Bienvenido face each other by their religions, and despite Eva's will asking secrecy, an always clueless Celia accepts to be interviewed in the local TV channel to announce the wedding. When the own Eva starts to doubt of her feelings about Jorge, in the island appear Stuart and his mother Camilla after to be revealed by BBC that Stuart's father Sebastian has escaped to Barbados after making a currency flight to steal millions and millions of euros. With the situation out of any control, Sofía finally cancels the wedding, disappointed with Celia.

Two Weeks Notice

1 hr 41 mins
Harvard educated lawyer Lucy Kelson, following in the footsteps of her lawyer parents, uses her career for social activism. She hides any sense of femininity behind her work. George Wade is the suave public face of the Manhattan-based Wade Corporation, a development firm that Lucy routinely opposes and whose true head is George's profit-oriented brother, Howard Wade. George, who has a reputation as a lady's man, has had as his legal counsel a series of beautiful female lawyers with questionable credentials, they who have more primarily acted as his casual sex partners. Needing a real lawyer, he offers Lucy the job of his legal counsel on a chance meeting. Despite warnings from her parents in working for the "enemy", Lucy, who has no intention of being the latest in his bed partners, accepts the job as she feels she can do more good from the inside, and as George, as part of the job offer, promises not to demolish a community center in a heritage building as part of a development project near her childhood Coney Island home where her parents still live. Although Lucy is able to effect the type of change she wanted from this position, she finds she cannot deal with George's expectations of her, namely being his primary confidante and advisor at all hours of the day and night, mostly about issues she considers frivolous. As such, she gives him two weeks notice, although she promises to help George find her replacement. As Lucy begins to review resumes, George himself unilaterally decides to hire June Carver, a fellow Harvardite, but who seems to have her sights set on George as both a boss and personal partner. As June begins to replace Lucy in seemingly all aspects of George's life, Lucy begins to realize that she herself has fallen for George. However, Lucy's feelings for George and her attempts to re-ingratiate herself into George's life are placed into jeopardy when she learns of a Wade Corporation decision against her basic sensibilities.
