The struggle people have when facing marriage makes people anxious. In the small living space of a big city, is it extravagant for two young people to talk about love again? Disputes like the ones in this short film occur between couples every day, seemingly superficial, but actually full of misplaced beliefs and paradoxes. Perhaps the roadside singer from the perspective of God is the one who masters the truth.
