The film starring Helena Bonham-Carter, titled “ When Dating Met 2020” details the highs and lows of dating in 2020, championing those who have made an effort to date this year. Recent research from the popular app, found that 7 in 10 (71%) people on Bumble feel that their dating life has been significantly impacted in 2020*. For those that were dating, only half (49%) were even confident about how to this year. The 90” launch film follows one woman’ s dating journey in 2020 as she looks back at the hurdles she has faced and overcome. From video dates to socially-distanced walks and the inevitable wee in the park, the film celebrates the awkward and funny situations that have made her stronger.
