Lonely Planet

Lonely Planet (2024) is a romantic drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Susannah Grant and starring Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth. The setting is a writers' retreat in Morocco — terracotta light, open skies, and just enough distance from ordinary life to let two strangers actually talk.

Katherine is an established novelist, freshly single and quietly unmoored. Owen is younger, good-looking, and at the retreat to figure out what he actually wants from his life. What begins as polite conversation at a shared table slowly turns into something neither of them planned. Grant keeps the film grounded in small moments rather than dramatic gestures, which is either its charm or its problem depending on your patience.

Dern carries it — her Katherine is self-aware enough to find herself a little absurd, and that keeps the film from tipping into pure fantasy. Stream Lonely Planet (2024) online on iFILM.
