In 2016, it was reported the by the U.S. Census that there are now more adult single women than married women in the United States. Why now? Are women redefining happily ever after? Filmmakers Michelle Cove and Kerry David decided to find out. They went underneath the bubbly surface of romantic comedies and reality TV shows (a la "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette") to talk to hundreds of single women to find out what's really going on.

Most of the women filmed were eager to debunk the media-made stereotypes that they are either desperate to get married or too career driven to care about marriage. In the name of reclaiming their own experience, these women dropped their guard and shared the ups and downs of being single at this unique moment in history.

Single men also desperately wanted to clear up misconceptions about themselves and what they are looking for in relationships. Female Baby Boomers confessed their mixed feelings about whether this is what they wanted for young women. Even young girls shocked us with their ideas of what happily ever after looks like.

It turns out that almost everyone has an opinion about single women, what happily ever after looks like, and where we are heading. This funny, poignant, and entertaining documentary will leave viewers surprised, hopeful, curious, and rethinking assumptions about what it means to be single and 30-something today.
