Synopsis:
Lili (36) has been in a stable relationship for a few years. Apparently everything works between her and her partner. However, there is an underground unhappiness in her daily life that prevents her from being happy. She has no external excuse – except trivia – for this inability to move forward and be happy with David (36).
This feeling is not new. She has already experienced it with her previous partners. So she decides that before throwing it all away again, she will find the reasons that lead her to this cyclical state.
That is why Lili is looking for three men who have been capitals in her life to interview them under the initial question: What did we do wrong? These men each represent a different type of love, which also corresponds to the age at which they maintained the relationship.The interviews are intertwined with the life of Lili and David, always between humor and tragedy.
Her interaction ends up changing the course of the story.
