“It’s a funny, fearless, suspenseful sex comedy.” – Wesley Morris, BOSTON GLOBE
“Narratively and stylistically, Tykwer turns the love triangle on its head, crafting an emotionally mature and complex film that’s dense with the stuff of life.” – Annlee Ellingson, PASTE MAGAZINE
From acclaimed filmmaker Tom Tykwer, director of RUN LOLA RUN, comes this sexy, seductive and stylish romantic drama with a nod to classic Hollywood screwball comedies. Hanna and Simon, an upscale middle-aged couple in their 40s, live together in Berlin. With their 20th anniversary looming, they both become restless despite being truly and deeply in love. Unbeknownst to one another, they each become acquainted with Adam, a younger man, and both fall madly in love with him, leading to a thrilling plunge into sexual fluidity. Complementing an inventive narrative with a slick visual polish and dynamic soundtrack, Tykwer crafts a sophisticated take on modern relationships that subtly evolves from erotic to darkly comic to cruel and fatalistic. Clearly not your typical 1930s romp, this bold reinvention of those classic films is a playful update: an intellectual study of a modern couple looking for redefinition in a world of absolutes.
