LOVERS is divided into two different stories. The first, "Winners", describes two seventeen year old students. The first, Joe, is an intelligent young man who is driven to succeed through his studies. Mag, Joe's girlfriend, is a young lady who lives in surrealism. Through the course of the show, will their love continue to grow, or tear itself apart from the inside out?

"Losers", quite the opposite, is the story of an adult couple, who after the years of being alone, have finally found one another. Yet, a mother who preaches the words of a non-existing saint could cause the end of the relationship. One wonders: "Can love really survive in the end?"
