Palm Springs is a 2020 romantic comedy directed by Max Barbakow…

This is the story of Nyles, played by Andy Samberg, we meet Nyles and his girlfriend Misty played by Meredith Hagner at a WEDDING, in Palm Springs.

It’s the wedding of Tala (Camilla Mendes) and Abe (Tyler Hoechlin).

We quickly learn that Nyles is maybe depressed, a little apathetic about life, and moreover, the common theme for NYLES, is that every day is exactly like the last day, and tomorrow, will be exactly like today… and we go through the day, AND NIGHT, of this wedding through the point of view OF Nyles.. And ultimately we realize that for NYLES, that concept… is the truth, the date is November 9th 2019 and Nyles is STUCK in a TIMELOOP, nobody else remembers that the day has repeated, JUST NYLES, who is stuck, in Palm Springs retracing the steps of this wedding every day…

Until someone joins him… sister of the bride Sarah Wilder, played by Christin Milioti…
