Synopsis of La La Land
Mia (Emma Stone) aspires to be an actress, but so far she is still just an ordinary barista in the coffee shop on the set, despite constantly participating in large and small auditions, but Mia harvest only failure. One day at a party, Mia meets Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), and there is a slight conflict between the two, but Mia is soon attracted to Sebastian’s talent and his pure pursuit of jazz, and the two eventually bond.
With Sebastian’s encouragement, Mia quit her job in the cafe and concentrated on writing the script for herself, while Sebastian joined a popular jazz band in order to get a stable income and began to play modern jazz that he did not like, and did not expect an instant hit. With the passage of time, the two people who strive to pursue their dreams, the distance between each other is getting farther and farther, between the ideal and the feelings, they must make a choice.
