Newness
Two twenty-something millennials in contemporary L.A. are Martin, a pharmacist, and Gabi (a physiotherapist), who spend weekends “swiping” on dating apps. There are many options, but the focus is more on connection than hooking up. They find that they can talk into the wee hours of the morning when they first meet. Connecting. It’s exciting. It’s new. It’s a new experience. They rush to get together, exhilarated at each other. They meet up for dates. They get married. The couple skips work in order to fall in love. But, soon their relationship is boring. They decide to have an open relationship.
