Antoine Doinel is in his 30s and getting divorced. He lives with Sabine, a record saleswoman, but has eyes only for Colette, who he used to love 15 years ago. In the previous Antoine Doinel film, Bed and Board, the marriage between Antoine and Christine had survived Antoine's infidelity. "Love on the Run" is set 8 years later, when Antoine is over 30. Having divorced Christine and now in an affair with her friend Liliane and divorced Christine, he gets a job as a proofreader, and falls in love with Sabine, a record seller. He also writes an autobiographical novel. He meets Colette, his teenage love who had appeared in Antoine and Colette, and who is now a lawyer. They impulsively go on a train journey and read Antoine's novel. However, later follows a meeting between Colette and Christine: His romance with Sabine is as complicated and unstable, and it turns out that two of his former flames, Christine and Colette, play a pivotal role in helping him find happiness.
