Desire, deception, and disastrous decisions collide in this bold and unpredictable selection of international shorts. On a remote Mediterranean island, a young man risks everything for unspoken love, while in a quiet German forest, intimacy and grief intertwine in an unexpected way. A scorned ex in France attempts an unconventional act of closure, and in the UK, a trans man gets the last laugh after being forced out the back door by a closeted celebrity. Meanwhile, a hopeless romantic in Spain still believes in fate, and a struggling Belgian gym owner’s financial woes take a surprising turn when an unexpected attraction throws him into an identity crisis. From sun-drenched longing to dark humor and emotional reckonings, these stories prove that when it comes to love and lust, nothing ever goes as planned.

Jero and Tom are the young couple that everyone wants to be. On their first anniversary, Jero returns home and discovers that Tom has abandoned him, leaving a box with 300 letters as the only explanation and the ghosting as an answer. The reading proposes to Jero, a trip to the past to meet completely different Tom than what he seemed to be. Each letter sheds light on a extremely unequal relationship riddled with double intentions. And the great love story they lived seems to sink under the title of the "Jero project". But all pain comes to an end and the hope of a new love could be the cure for so much suffering.
