Must Have Been Love

Running time: 85 mins

Lovers without borders. Kasia is a Finnish girl who meets the handsome Norwegian Jacob while they are both vacationing in Istanbul. The two explore the city together the next day, and sparks fly, but Jacob's vacation is over and he returns home. Months later, after taking a job in Oslo, Kasia searches for Jacob. She mistakes him for a man named Andreas and starts a relationship with this doppelganger even after Andreas corrects her. However, their flame is not igniting as quickly as with Jacob. Sacrificing her happiness to stay with her look-alike boyfriend, Kasia holds onto the hope that the man of her dreams will show up and rescue her again someday. Must Have Been Love is a romantic and unpredictable cinematic expression touching the basis and complexity of human behavior. - Joe Keenan
