Love, that ineffable force that stirs the soul and ignites the body, is often celebrated as the pinnacle of human experience. With a flutter of the heart, the mundane world is transformed into a canvas painted with vibrant hues of passion and possibility. Yet, there is a darker side to love weighing on our shoulders – as we balance on the precipice of hope and despair, we become acutely aware of our vulnerability. Insecurity and dependency creep in. What if they don’t reciprocate our feelings? For this very reason, some never dare to weave a single thread into the tangled tapestry of love. Meanwhile, others plunge headfirst into its elaborate designs, enjoying every moment. Join us in Cinemateket, where Affairs of the Heart 2.0 unravels the intricate emotions woven into the fabric of love.
Welcome to an evening of romance!

I dag er det ikke lenger bare en drøm for mennesker å fly på himmelen og seile på havet. Men hvorfor føler vi fortsatt at hendene våre er bundet, og at føttene ikke får være fri? Er det begjæret som har bundet oss? Eller er det at vi undertrykker våre lengsler?
Nowadays, it is no longer just a dream for humans to fly in the sky and sail on the sea. But why do we still feel that our hands are tied, and our feet are not allowed to be free? Is it that the desire has tied us up? Or is it that we ignore our desire?
