'Based on an English academic's memoir on stalking and being stalked, Unrequited Love is a dazzling digital film essay on cinema and absence, on Hitchcock and Antonioni, on cinema and cities.

Their methods duplicate: both are irrational and targeted. Stalkers are the fundamentalists of love.' (Movie Mail Online)
