Loving is a film that tells a story about complicated relationships between two married 30-year-olds, who seem to have everything they could wish for. Maria has a successful career in the Town Hall, while Tomek has also found fulfilment in his job. They are arranging a flat and expecting a baby. Their relationship seems to be unshakeable. However, Maria has not told her husband about a certain shocking event, which is affecting both her, and their relationship. Their love is to face a long-term test... Both are lost and drifting away from each other, more and more. How much can they stand and what does the word “love” mean to them now?
