Natalia and Oriol are a couple of filmmakers in their thirties who have a little daughter named Lia. One day, they receive an offer to direct a documentary and decide to make a film about couples in love.

Natalia and Oriol interview many couples, always wanting to know how they get along and what their most typical problems are. But as filming progresses, wounds from their own relationship begin to open up; fights and doubts seem to be endless.

Finishing the film becomes their opportunity to reformulate their love for each other and their love for cinema.
