Love

Murphy is an American film student living in Paris. On a rainy January morning, he receives a call at the small apartment he shares with Danish partner Omi and their 18-month-old son, Gaspar. The caller is Nora, the mother of his ex-girlfriend Electra, who asks if Murphy knows of her daughter's whereabouts. She hasn't heard from Electra in three months, and is worried, given her issues with depression and previous suicide attempts.

For the rest of this day, Murphy recalls his relationship with Electra in a series of fragmented, nonlinear flashbacks. They depict their first meeting; their quick hook-up; and their lives over the next two years, which are filled with drug abuse, rough sex, and tender moments. Murphy and Electra eventually met and had a no-strings-attached threesome with Omi, then a young adolescent, as a way to add some excitement to their love life.

However, Murphy continued his sexual relationship with Omi, without Electra's knowledge. This eventually resulted in an unplanned pregnancy, due to a broken condom. Omi refused to terminate the pregnancy, as she was against abortion due to having been an unplanned child herself. Admitting the truth to Electra ultimately ended her and Murphy's relationship, leading to the present-day set up of Murphy and Omi raising the child together in a loveless relationship. Electra's whereabouts and ultimate fate are left unresolved at the end of the film.
