L' UOMO CHE AMA embodies an exploration of gay-influenced heterosexual perspectives and attitudes in the early 21st century. Roberto, is a straight Turin-based pharmacist emotionally attached to his younger brother, the homosexual Carlo. Roberto witnesses Carlo's delirious happiness with lover Yuri and feels extremely envious that Carlo has found someone. Though Roberto has proven himself capable of landing successful relationships in the past - his previous lovers include sexy hotel employee Sara and the drop-dead-gorgeous art gallery proprietor Alba - these relationships invariably ended in heartbreak, with Roberto either being dumped (in the case of Sara) or abandoning his partner (in the case of Alba). As time rolls on, he begins to feel a palpable sense of his own lingering happiness and dissatisfaction, and attempts to reconcile this with his convictions that everyone else in the world is completely satisfied with life.
