Love Struck is a bittersweet tale of love and rejection, lyrically narrated in rhyming couplets.

A schoolboy reads an ancient folktale about a beautiful woman who emerges from a lake, only to discover that the tale is becoming his schoolyard reality. A modern and humorous retelling of a Welsh folktale.
