Yves et Richard s’évadent de l’asile. En se cachant, Richard tombe dans un trou. La fille d’un ouvrier de la carrière proche observe Yves resté seul et le ramène à l’asile.

Nous le connaissons tous, ce sentiment terrassant de désespoir absolu. Le chagrin d’amour n’est pas une peine d’adolescents. Peu de phases de notre vie sont à ce point écrasantes, angoissantes et paralysantes. Epaulé par son cameraman Peter Indergand, Christian Frei plonge dans les nuits exaltées de malheureux fraîchement éconduits. Des nuits empreintes de douleur et de larmes, mais aussi de veille et de créativité. L’anthropologue Helen Fisher explore les processus étonnants et complexes qui se jouent dans le cerveau des amoureux délaissés. La nature a-t-elle exagéré? Le film prospecte le difficile chemin qui mène d’une attitude obsessive et autodestructrice à un nouveau moi. Et s’incline devant l’inébranlable désir, envers et contre tout… d’amour.
