Issa Rae, LaKeith Stanfield Are Super Sexy and in Love in ‘The Photograph’ Trailer [TRAILER]

YouTube video

*The first trailer for Issa Rae and LaKeith Stanfield’s Valentine’s Day rom-com “The Photograph” has dropped, and it’s super sexy.

Refinery 29 has a breakdown of the plot:

Rae plays Mae Morton, whose mother, famous photographer Christina Eames , has died suddenly, leaving her without any sense of closure. Theirs was a fraught relationship, and Mae finds herself angry and hurt — until she finds an old black and white photograph hidden a safety deposit box that may hold the key to her mother’s life story. Around the same time, Mae meets Michael Block (Stanfield), an up-and-coming journalist writing a story about her mother’s career. Together, they strive to solve the mystery of Christina’s past — and fall in love in the process. But can it last?

“I don’t want to lose you because I’m afraid to love you,” Mae says in the trailer.

“You don’t have to be afraid,” Michael replies.
