After fifteen years together, director Ale and actor Alex decide to separate and organize a big separation party. The idea, which came to her father, excites them so much that they start organizing everything together, telling their friends and inviting them. The more they talk about it, the more they seem convinced, although the recurring question of everyone is whether they really want to separate or if it's just another way to stay together. In the meantime, the two are shooting a film on this very same theme.

"A couple decides to break up. And then they organize a party. The comedy of remarriage according to Jonás Trueba with metatextual depth and overwhelming lightness. Having reached full expressive maturity after a series of splendid pirate films, Trueba plays with fiction and hide-and-seek with reality, weaving a deep and overwhelming metatextual discourse in which the meaning of making cinema lies in keeping in mind the great future behind, in listening to the other, in giving epic consistency to the daily life of affections. Best European film at the Quinzaine des Réalisateurs in Cannes 2024". (Lorenzo Ciofani)
