The film presents eight different stories about love - each seen from a different point of view. Starting with the biological approach, where love is understood as a result of a chemical reaction, through the love that parents give to their children, siblings to each other, to the sympathy of two people - first infatuation, and with time a mature and stable bond. The picture does not idealize love, however. It also touches on the problems of betrayal and loneliness in the modern world.
