Antares tells three stories of passion jealously, routine and violence. Love is the cause of, and driving force behind the character's emotional and physical experiences. This film also tells us what this fundamental energy of life brings about and how it leads to human action or suffering. And finally, what it is capable of triggering in the way of longing and destruction, tenderness, fear, loneliness and courage.
Alex and Nicole are divorced but Alex cannot let go of what has passed. Sonja is facing tough times because of her pregnancy and becoming wildly jealous of her husband Marco. While Eva, a loyal wife and mother, has her life turned upside-down by a fling with Tomasz. They all live in the same impersonal housing estate, emotionally messy individuals within a uniform concrete façade.
