Short synopsis:
A young coder KALIN (29) is happy in love with his boss INA (30), an independent strong woman. Few weeks later she is bored and his contract is over, so she has the perfect excuse to dump him over email – and she fires him, too. KALIN goes on a dating spree using “love apps”, but the more he dates, the more this thing is getting on his nerves. He sits down and codes an application for online break-ups, he uses it to block all the nagging women and puts it on the AppStore.
Turns out the app is a huge hit and he is an overnight millionaire. Shortly it changes the rules of relationships: everybody is breaking someone up with the app. The flashier women he dates, the more he thinks about INA. They meet on a big event starring Kalin, and eventually get back together, all designed by his plan. Now that he has it all, he has to decide is this really what he wanted all along…
