Dodi & Diana

By Kareem Fahmy

August 31, 2022: Jason and Samira are staying at the Hôtel Ritz Paris, the same hotel where Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed spent some of their last moments alive. They're there for the "cosmic convergence," the twenty-fifth anniversary of the untimely deaths of Diana and Dodi, which Jason's astrologer has promised will awaken and possibly unite the two couples spiritually. But what's really at stake is the future of Jason and Samira's relationship. They're desperate to lose themselves in the type of passion they had at the beginning of their relationship.

Will the couple be able to overcome Jason's jealousy over Samira's acting career and their differing opinions over starting a family and find their way back together?
