An anxious woman navigates the bustle of modern day Cairo to find her missing lover, a young adult strives for an authentic connection in a future society numbed by alcohol, and two Cold War-era lovers face the consequences of finding romance across political borders. A vibrant collection of short films - by turns gritty and dreamlike - exploring the changes and complexities of a Love Evolving.

The futuristic segment's 'social drinking mandate' was inspired by actual Prohibition-era medicinal alcohol loopholes, inverted into dystopia.
