Love me

The story of a young woman, her longing to be loved and her fear of being rejected because of the jealousy, uncertainty and cowardice we usually prefer to keep to ourselves. Twenty-year-old Maria is a troubled and lonely girl who falls in love with the grounded and patient Adam. He is the first boyfriend to treat her nicely, but Maria struggles with her past and the relationship with her dad, who left her when she was very young. When her dad reappears, it makes Maria vulnerable to the fear of being rejected once again.
