5 Love Stories

Synopsis

The film begins with a clothes vendor in Hacarmel Market, who still remembers his love of 20 years ago. The significance of time within the unfolding story takes us to a 10 years old girl, promising her competing admirers that she will choose one of them before she is 12. In chronological order, from youth to old age to death, another 4 love stories unfold, and within them, time is of essence. All five stories express diverse meanings of love within the passage of time, and together they are a philosophical reflection of our aspiration for happiness.
