Dates in Real Life

Ida spends most of her life online. Together with her American boyfriend Marvin, whom she’s never met in person, they have built a life in virtual reality. When he suddenly announces he’s dating another woman IRL, Ida's world collapses. Determined to find her own physical connection, she embarks on a journey full of amusing encounters, out-of-body experiences, and self-discovery. Throughout it all, the hope of rekindling her relationship with Marvin remains a driving force.
