Experiment 1
Eva is only interested in exploring love, but the political climate demands action. She decides to use love to save the world, by having children with men from different countries, hoping that by making the whole world related, she will end all wars.
Experiment 2
Eva receives a letter from a stranger, warning her about her partner. The message seems misleading: several women have submitted testimonies about him to a feminist organisation, but they only complain about how wonderful he was in the relationship and how painful it was to break up with him. Eva attends an imaginary trial, listening to accusations against her partner.
Experiment 3
Eva meets a man at a party who is cynical about love and thinks it a topic not worth exploring: everything has already been written and said about it. Hoping to prove him wrong, Eva searches for a model of romantic love in the contemporary, post-emotional, metamodern world.
