In the near future, melancholic Theodore lives in Los Angeles as a ghostwriter for love letters. When the sensitive man acquires an operating system tailored to his needs, he falls in love with the voice of this artificial intelligence - and finds love in return. A wonderful thought experiment about relationships with the world and with other people. Oscars 2014: Best screenplay! An "exciting what-if", a "rarely clever and rarely beautiful love story!" - Kinozeit

"Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson are certainly one of the most beautiful lovers of this decade. A couple of almost disembodied longing, against all odds. A quietly ironic study in longing that leaves the viewer disturbed and enchanted." - Hans Schifferle
