    "Be with Me" consists of three stories of love vs. solitude : 1) An aging, lonesome shopkeeper doesn't believe in life anymore, ever since his wife died. But he is saved from desperation by reading an autobiographical book and meeting its author, a deaf and blind woman of his own age. 2) Fatty, a security guard in his fifties, lives for two things: good food and love for a pretty executive living in his block of flats. But, if it is easy to satisfy his first need, winning the heart of the distant belle is a horse of another color. 3) Two teenage schoolgirls get to know each other on the Internet. Soon they fall in love.
