Surreal romantic-comedy starring Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men) and Mark Duplass (Safety Not Guaranteed). The plot – described by Variety as "a challenge to discuss without spoiling a good deal of the fun" – involves the couple being sent on a dizzying weekend getaway, in an attempt to repair the cracks in their relationship. Co-stars Ted Danson as the couple's therapist.

"Ethan and Sophie are a married couple on the brink of separation. At the urging of their therapist, they escape to a beautiful vacation house for a weekend getaway in an attempt to salvage what’s left of their relationship. What starts off as a relaxing and tranquil retreat soon spirals into a bizarre experience that forces the couple to reflect upon the complexities of their troubled partnership. Over the course of a few days, Ethan and Sophie work diligently to rediscover their better selves and embrace the unexpected as everything they once thought was real becomes more and more surreal." (Sundance Film Festival)

The Dissolve

"On a moment-to-moment basis, this smoothly made film can be incredibly trying, even annoying, to watch, due to the grueling repetitiveness of the scenes."
