Only Human is a 2010 Irish experimental film directed by Rouzbeh Rashidi that tells the visual story of five couples. A tale of people unfolds under the night sky. These doomed couples and lost individuals begin journeys and attempt to find resolution in their lives. As the stories progress, they become neatly woven into a minimalistic portrayal of modern life.
