Same name. Different hearts. One unexpected connection.
Lily Trevino is a lonely, aimless 20-something trying to navigate adulthood, self-worth, and strained family ties—particularly with her emotionally absent father.
By chance, she stumbles across a stranger online—another Bob Trevino. But unlike her real dad, this Bob is warm, kind, and full of encouragement. Through late-night messages, shared struggles, and unexpected support, an online friendship blossoms into something that begins to fill the emotional gap in Lily’s life.
But as the connection deepens, so do the questions: Can someone you’ve never met really see the best in you? And what happens when chosen family feels more real than blood?
A moving, deeply personal film about loneliness, found family, and the power of being seen, Bob Trevino Likes It explores how even the most unlikely relationships can help us reclaim hope.
