Gwen, a pedantic believer in all things mystical, has just received a sketch of her soulmate from a stranger on the internet. Determined to find the love of her life, Gwen launches her own personal search campaign.

Soulmate Wanted was the winner of the Kinsale Shark Screenwriting Award and also the winner of the First Frames DLR Fund which funded the making of the short thanks to Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council and IADT. Soulmate Wanted is a mockumentary that explores themes of loneliness and hope through the eyes of Gwen, an ever-positive and optimistic person, as she navigates life post-lockdown.
