This situation... A warmhearted comedy about finding love in the most unlikely places, CHERRY stars former supermodel Shalom Harlow in the equally unlikely role of a 29-year-old virgin named Leila. This situation came about after Leila's tragic abandonment at the altar when she was all of 19--a trauma that caused her to swear off men forever. Ten years later Leila's sticking to her guns, but now she has decided she wants to have a child. Unsure how to proceed, she visits gynecologist Beverly Kirk (Jake Weber), who coincidentally has been nursing a crush on her. The ads Leila places in the paper for sperm donors are turning up nothing but duds, reminding her of why she eschewed men in the first place, but meanwhile she meets Eddie (Donovan Leitch), a professional clown, and he begins courting the hopeful mother. Soon, the girl who swore off love finds herself faced with a choice between two charming suitors, in a romantic comedy that is itself charming in its sincerity, humor, and lack of sentimentality.
