  They say it's never too late for love. Normally we associate dating and finding a love interest with people under fifty. So we tend to forget the older ones because we assume they already or still have their partner or if they don't that they are simply not interested in finding love anymore. But one needs love and a special one to rely on their whole life. This movie focuses on finding this very special love in the "third part of life". Different characters meet at a speed dating event. The six men and seven women have limited time to talk with each other and see how they are getting along. They all have different lives, different pasts and different visions of how they want their life to go on and their partner to be, but what unites them is the search for love and the hope to find it. No matter how old they are, what they do or where they come from, this is a chance for everyone of them to end their loneliness and begin again. The movie shows this search in a special way and reminds us that it is not a question of age to find a partner and fall in love.
