talking about - nanette & max

  He exclaimed, “Don’t you remember me?” “Well, yes.” She said. “It was a long time ago.” In truth, Nanette never forgot that kiss.

 

    “It’s wonderful Nanette. Until I have to leave. I am the one always unpacking in another city. Without you.”

   

   “I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave you. I don’t want you to leave me,” Nanette was starting to hyperventilate. Max pulled her up off the floor to sit in a chair. He brought her a glass of water. “Why do we do this to each other, Max?” Nanette implored. “Why am I so afraid that this is just sex. Why does my heart always ache for you?” Max watched as Nanette’s emotions ran through her like a freight train and caught up to where he was.

Meet the People - nanette & max


Je suis Nanette Richard. I live in Paris and London as the business manager for an international flower shop. My position in the company involves a lot of travel, so I get to see my American boyfriend, Max often. I met him briefly, a long time ago. We shared a magical kiss. Many years later we were reunited amidst the tragic death of a dear friend. Max and I clung to each other back then, a bittersweet beginning to our romance. Our separations are difficult, and I miss him so much, but it is new and exciting every time we meet again.

Max Ramsey, nice to meet you. I have 2 passions in my life; my career as a technology executive, and my love, Nanette. I met her one summer during a waiter gig. I was brave and stole a kiss. She stole my heart. I spent the next few years searching for her. We finally met, by chance, in the lobby of a Paris hotel. Since then we’ve struggled with a long distance relationship. I’d love nothing more than to pick a city, move in together, and finally have a life with her.




On Location

Nanette and Max suffer through a long distance relationship for four years. They steal away when they can, to meet in various cities. They try to make the most of each visit, creating a semblance of home at each location. They find themselves very comfortable in my beloved New York City, coming back often to keep their love alive.

Soundtrack

As a survivor of a long distance relationship I remember turning to music for comfort. The separation is at its worst when you’re not busy. It’s in those quiet moments that you feel so alone. They are precious moments that you want to share with someone you love. I filled the space and time with music, with the lyrics as my lament. Even though those days are long gone I can still feel a twinge of longing when I hear these. This soundtrack captures the agony and heartache that Nanette and Max encounter at each long goodbye.
