A colorful, musical and humorous performance with both bizarre and everyday scenes. What happens to love when we try to choose a partner in a rational way? How does romance fare when we only care about our own happiness? And what can we really learn from Socrates, Beyoncé, Lord Byron and Leonardo DiCaprio before we all become discerning consumers in the singles market? Direction and dramatization by Ada Berger inspired by Liv Strömquist's book "The Reddest Rose Blooms".
