Dating in 2024, an impossible task... The optimistic Roos has the answer for dating in this time; never endlessly swiping on apps that lead to disappointing dates, but a date with your ideal counterpart carefully matched by a human matchmaker! Roos starts her company ‘Blind Date’ with good spirits and matches 4 singles after an extensive questionnaire. Clumsy dog groomer Jenny has given up hope after numerous dramatic dates. Bob analyzes his dates just like the figures in his financial job. Aldo can’t score points with his cheesy pickup lines and Eefje is overprotected by her worried father. Roos organizes the perfect date night for these 4 undatables with the help of her skeptical office colleague Geurt. Does the “perfect date” guarantee a match made in heaven, or do opposites attract after all?
