Love stories hampered by society, unrequited loves, loves that end, love and sex, love for oneself. Love has many meanings and many facets. It is such a strong feeling to overcome obstacles as big as mountains, capable of guiding us in our evolution. But at the same time it is fragile and in danger of being easily destroyed like a delicate flower in a storm. Family and social prejudices, greed, selfishness, pride, arrogance, lust, lack of communication. A collection of films that explores the conflicts that love must face in order to become part of our lives, or funny comedies in which the theme of love is told with lightness and irony.
