The synopsis of Fingernails is as follows: in the not so distant future, scientists have developed a test that measures the degree of attachment of a couple and checks if the members of this couple are really in love. In the wake of the availability of this test, institutes have opened to help couples succeed. Anna, played by Jessie Buckley, begins working at one of these institutes as Trevor’s assistant. The latter meets a mysterious and dedicated instructor (Riz Ahmed).
