History of Love is the story of Iva, a girl who, after the disappearance of her mother, discovers the secret past. Because of a hearing deficit, Iva has raised a barrier between herself and the side of her mother's life-related music. When her mother dies and Iva discovers her mother's extramarital relationship with the conductor Erik, she will venture on an unexpected journey through past and present, anger and guilt, pain and desire for truth.

The film is an international co-production involving Monoo (Slovenia), Nefertiti Film (Italy) and Incitus (Norway).

History of Love will be filmed in Slovenia and Friuli Venezia Giulia. In Friuli the locations involved are Gorizia, the Bruno Bianchi Municipal Swimming Pool and the Tartini Conservatory in Trieste, the Isonzo River and the Marina Julia Camping Village in Monfalcone.
