The Making of Love is a psychological journey into the realm of lovesickness. A seduction has altered a teenage girl. Her involvement with an older man and subsequent abandonment by him inflicts a solipsistic stupor upon her daily life. She is transfixed by consciousness, haunted by memories and subjugated by turbulent emotions. This girl is real and her words are transposed from the pages of a private journal into the space of film. The Making of Love shows a mind pondering upon the ailments and emotions occurring when the unrequited manifests physically and philosophically.
