Lóve is a 2011 Slovak-language film directed by Jakub Kroner, starring Michal Nemtuda and Kristína Svarinská, alongside Jakub Gogál. The action-romantic drama was released on October 13, 2011, while distributed by Continental Film in Slovakia, and Falcon in the Czech Republic.[2]

Although the plot revolves around love determination, the original title refers to "money" instead, which serve as instrumental, quoting a term commonly used in the region amongs gypsies - "lóve".[3] In English therefore, "Falling in Money", "Love Deal" or "Dirty Love", could be used as apt equivalents for the title.

Despite the mixed reviews upon its theatrical release, the work has been ranked amongs the highest grossing films in the Slovak-cinema era, placing at number three as of November 2014.[1]
