They’re called long-term singles, absolute beginners, or people without any experience in relationships. They’ve never held hands or smooched in the cinema. They don’t know how to find a partner, or “how it works” with love. They’ve fallen in love, but have never been loved back. And their deficit isn’t even visible. They come in fat and thin, male and female, old and young. Unrecognized and unkissed, they suffer by themselves and, by necessity, adjust themselves to living life alone – but it’s always just a temporary life, for they’re not prepared to give up all hope …

The film is narrated from first person perspective: the interior view of an unintentional single life in a world where it is difficult to escape love. The search for answers to the why, for an escape from loneliness, for access to the world of the loving.
