My Love poster
NR

My love is the story of two people who come together to let each other go. Noriah and Arian, a former couple, come back together for the first time on the night before Noriah's wedding. The film is a look back at young love - from the perspective of adulthood. When you're in it, it surely must be forever. But, of course, it cannot sustain itself in the face of such inexperience. The film is an admission of a universal truth, that the one who got away will never truly leave us.
