While in Shakespeare's time feuding families stood in the way of the lovers, today it's rigid ideologies and their prejudices. Romeo and Juliet become Robin Hood and Wonder Woman. At least, that's how Steve and Kate meet at a costume party. He's a committed feminist, she's more into the macho type. So, after getting down on one knee, there's no engagement ring, but rather a sincere apology for the patriarchy. If that weren't contradictory enough, an emancipated political activist also encounters a Jewish religious conservative – the parents of the lovers. If one were to assume their differences are insurmountable, the opposite poles only attract each other more strongly. But perhaps their own children's wedding isn't the most appropriate moment for this. And to make the whole romantic spectacle even more complex, the ex-boyfriends get involved. And all of this is embodied by just two actors.

How to Date a Feminist

We are in the heart of a large city. What do we see? In a restaurant, a woman uses her sick mother as an excuse not to move in with her boyfriend. In a bicycle shop, a man writes a love poem into the void. In the park, one woman convinces another to vote for a new gun control law. In the polluted river, anglers discover dead fish. Our gaze repeatedly returns to the apartment of the couple Erik and Nino, who, almost unintentionally, are slowly drifting apart.
