An unrequited love story starring British TV and film actor Jules Robertson who has autism. This bittersweet movie tells the story of Oscar, a complex character with unique needs but the same hopes and desires as everyone else. Rather than a movie “about” autism, Love invites its viewers to think about the world from the perspective of a person with autism. We follow Oscar's journey as he takes the poetic words of his favorite band “The Streets” and using them as a coping mechanism when faced with disturbing social stalemates.
