The audience learn all about their past love affair and the reason for their break-up.
The synopsis reads: “Filled with wish fulfilment, stunning landscapes, and all the romantic yearning of One Day combined with the fun of Planes, Trains and Automobiles, THE ROAD TRIP is a beguiling, modern story about love in your late twenties.
"A kaleidoscopic rom-com, it explores love in all its guises through a trio of unforgettable relationships: a class-divided romance, a codependent bromance, and a knotty but affectionate sisterly bond."
Emma Appleton previously starred in Traitors, The Killing Kind, Pistols, and Everything I Know About Love.
