Love is the most perfect way in which people can bond in a lasting way, love is the highest peak that emotions and feelings can achieve to conquer happiness, but then, why does it cause so many ruptures and becomes a source of bitterness, could it be that love hides a dark and gloomy reverse? Of course. We do not know love in its pure state, and we do not even know if such a thing exists even if we like to believe in it. But there it all ends, the path that goes from love without contradictions to selfish love, is full of twists and turns.
 
First of all, if the romantic love between two people is identified as true love, we make the first mistake in calling it authentic, because this love is a cultural idea supported by an evolutionary psychology that pushes men and women to unite with it. simple purpose of having offspring. It would be something like the dress that human survival puts on the act of procreating. We have known for a long time that this kind of love is not love, it is a cocktail of euphoric neurotransmitters so that we like a person and join them, with the aim, no matter how much they disguise themselves, of having children. When that cocktail fades, men and women stop loving each other, just as promised. History is crammed with this behavior.

​

So what is love if we do without the disguise of survival? The truth is that nobody knows it because what we do when we love is to love ourselves first and last, in a closed circuit. However it is believed that love is something like the key to unlocking our innate selfishness, but that never happens. In love we constantly win and lose, there is plunder, benefits, objections, reproaches, agreements and disagreements, all depending on how threatened our personal importance feels, in short, our individuality, our appropriate right to be the world above the world. 

​

If this film tries to do anything, it is to show that tortuous and fraudulent process of loving people without loving them, leaving us alone in a world full of others. Although it is also true that we know deep inside us that love is the only feeling capable of forgiving us for this behavior and opening the doors of our cell, even if it means a first sacrifice. Usually it is never done, we take our love to the grave, virgin, unwrapped, that's why you have the feeling of dying alone, despite having loved and loved you. The love that Impure State speaks of, at the end of the film, is precisely the opposite of this love with which we sail through life as pirates, stealing the treasures of others.

​

The love to which the impure state points out is the love opposed to love, the unknown love that is scary because it attacks the scourge of love of pain.
