The film “Starting Over Again” talks about how much you are willing to give and do for love. It revolves around the love story of Marco and Ginny wherein their relationship and love for each other was tested when one of them had to leave.

If we would view what love is in the film, we would see it as something that would always bring people together no matter what the circumstances may be. Marco and Ginny may not have ended up together but at least their love for each other inspired them to become better
