A pragmatic doctor and a compassionate nurse seek intimacy beyond the bounds of conventional relationships.

Marianne, a pragmatic doctor, and Tor, a compassionate nurse, are both avoiding conventional relationships. One evening, after a blind date, Marianne encounters Tor on the ferry. Tor, who often spends his nights there seeking casual encounters with men, shares his experiences of spontaneous intimacy. Intrigued by his perspective, Marianne begins to explore whether casual intimacy could also be an option for her.

“Love” is part of the SEX-LOVE-DREAMS trilogy of director Dag Johan Haugerud and it was screened in the Venice competition programme.
