About the Project
SYNOPSIS: The Last Five Years tells the bittersweet tale of a brief marriage between two young artists. The storytelling is non‑linear: Cathy, a struggling actor, starts her tale at the end of the marriage, working backwards through the timeline. Jamie, a literary prodigy, begins his at the onset of the relationship. The two narratives intersect on their wedding day before diverging again to arrive at the beginning, and end, of their five years together.
