- Natalia and Oriol are a couple of independent filmmakers in their thirties. They direct their films together, they have a little daughter called Lia and they have just finished their last auteur film with many doubts about the sense of making cinema. One day, they receive an offer from a producer friend who happens to have some money to produce a documentary. Oriol and Natalia accept the offer and they begin to imagine together a documentary about couples in love.
  
  Natalia and Oriol visit several couples, some of them are friends, others they just met. They interview them with great interest, always wanting to know more about how they get along and what their most typical problems are. As filming progresses, they themselves begin to question their own relationship as a couple. The process of making the film will open up some wounds of their own relationship, fights and doubts seem to be endless. But at the end they realize that cinema is not only a profession for it can also be a remedy for love.
