La historia de Un amor ocurre en La Escapa, un pequeño núcleo rural donde Nat, una joven e inexperta traductora, acaba de mudarse. Su casero, que le regala un perro como gesto de bienvenida, no tardará en mostrar su verdadera cara, y los conflictos en torno a la casa alquilada –una construcción pobre, llena de grietas y goteras– se convertirán en una verdadera obsesión para ella. El resto de los habitantes de la zona –la chica de la tienda, Píter el hippie, la vieja y demente Roberta, Andreas el alemán, la familia de ciudad que pasa allí los fines de semana– acogerán a Nat con aparente normalidad, mientras de fondo laten la incomprensión y la extrañeza mutuas.
