"First Love This Love Song" is a movie about the "past". In the 1980s, Dublin, the capital of Ireland, was conservative and closed, and people's lives were boring. Young people wanted to go to London, a big city across the sea, to enjoy life and pursue their dreams. The male protagonist Connor is a high school student. His parents quarrel every day, and because he is on the verge of bankruptcy and unable to pay his tuition fees, he is sent to a bottom school full of bad boys. Connor is bullied by bad students at the school and "educated" by a strict and stodgy teacher, and life seems to be no brighter. However, one day after school, he met a special girl at the school gate. The girl is dressed in fashion, claiming to be a model, like a proud peacock. Connor fell in love with her at first sight and thought of the coolest and most fashionable new thing at the time - a "MV" that combined rock and TV. Connor told the girl that he had a band, and now he was going to shoot the MV and needed a model. The girl looked intrigued, which kept Connor motivated.
