Love for self-taught

A good girl's survival manual in the world of digital dating

How different is dating at eighteen and at forty? Actually, almost not at all. At forty, you're still just as insecure and confused as you were at eighteen, it just doesn't look as cute anymore. Klára finds this out when her marriage ends overnight and she finds herself back in the unpredictable world of singles. She experiences a few disastrous dates, discovers for the first time what it's like to meet people via Tinder, Facebook, Messenger and Instagram, and that online embarrassments are just as awkward as real-life ones.

You could say that finding a partner these days can be both child's play and a game. After all, we have plenty of useful apps at our disposal, filled with crowds of single men. Forty-year-old Klára finds herself in the challenging waters of modern dating, and for her, it's something like Alice's world through the looking glass. Even though glossy women's magazines are full of one positive challenge after another, being a single, middle-aged woman is no great prize in real life.
