Opposites attract... sometimes!
Hate to Love You explores how fear and polarization make the path of love impossible. It delves into how people insist on proving themselves right, adopting increasingly extreme positions.

Right-wing Benjamin and left-wing Billie are expecting a baby! However, they find themselves navigating a minefield of decisions: multicultural neighborhood versus picturesque village, reusable diapers or disposable ones, plastic or wooden toys? The dilemma is further complicated by the outspoken opinions of godmother Marie and godfather Tommy. Yet, life takes a truly dramatic turn when Benjamin, recently a victim of senseless violence, directs his anger towards some young people in their neighborhood.
