A madcap comedy about the perils of open relationships from creative duo Michael Angelo Covino and Kyle Marvin that had audiences at Cannes roaring at every twist and refusal to take itself at all seriously.

An open marriage opens a can of worms in this winning indie comedy that gives Dakota Johnson and Adria Arjona a welcome opportunity to flex their comedic chops.

A drive to their friends’ seaside villa takes a turn for the worse when Ashley (Arjona) tells Carey (Marvin) that she wants to break up with him. Stranding the would-be divorcee on the side of the road Carey continues onto the beach house where best bud Paul (Covino) and his happily married wife Julie (Johnson) divulge the shocking secret to their lasting relationship…


“The pace of the film and the laugh-out-loud moments didn’t stop … with the comedy thrown at you thick and fast” — Paul Health, The Hollywood News

“Dakota Johnson and Adria Arjona are hilarious in an energetic and sexy film that'll make you feel like comedies are back.” — Patrice Witherspoon, Screenrant
