Synopsis

Berlin, today. Very urban couple Hanna and Simon have lived together for years. Love, work, sex and daily life have meshed into combative harmony.
Then Hanna meets Adam. And Adam meets Simon.
Unexpectedly, all three fall in love.
Everyone remains oblivious to the other's affair. But the secret slowly begins to confuse all three lovers, and it threatens to rupture their fragile relationship.
 
"Three" is an investigation into the emotional life of a generation that is trying to reconcile new possibilities and old longings.
