Five stories of love connected through happiness, heartache, loss and triumph, Run For Love is a travelogue of couples connecting around the world. During the Japanese winter, Feng Yujian (Eddie Peng), a sushi chef, meets Su Leqi (Zhang Ziyi), who has come to the area to explore, all because of her ex-boyfriend's letters about the place. With only a day and a half for an experience, they venture out. In Turkey, two tourists (Liang Jiang and Zhang Yi) lose their small daughter in an open market, prompting soul searching and worry. In Chicago, Guan Yue (Wu Mochou) is forced on a road trip along Route 66 by his dying wife (Wang Qianyuan). A nurse (Chen Yanxi) escapes to Norway after a bad breakup where she meets a young local who looks to make one of her patient's last wishes come true. And on a remote Pacific Island, a former actress (Tong Liya) is overtaken by memories of her past, only to meet a fan (Zhou Dongyu) with hidden secrets to reveal.
