"My American Muse is a story of one man's idealized, bittersweet experience of falling in love and evolving as a young artist in a foreign country. Eric Nilson, a young Norwegian artist seeking artistic inspiration in Los Angeles, meets and falls head-over-heels in love with the beautiful Heidi. At the same time, Eric meets Chloe, who falls madly in love with him. Now Eric must decide whether he wants to pursue the gorgeous, hard-to-land Heidi, or the willing, down-to-earth Chloe. In the spirit of Eric Rohmer and the French New Wave, Ezra Lunel tells this story as an ode to art and literature, designed as a memoir of Eric's first falling in love experience, that is both dialogue-driven and visually compelling."
