The long-standing relationship between Boris and Jonathan is crumbling. The actor and the writer have slowly grown apart. An intelligent and entertaining reflection on relationships and life plans that must be constantly renegotiated.
The looming escalation of the relationship conflict is already clearly noticeable. Even if the initial argument between Boris and Jonathan is just a script reading. But it is also a premonition of what is to come. Boris and Jonathan have been a couple for a long time, they have settled in, but they have also increasingly grown apart. Most of the time, the two simply work alongside each other. Jonathan is doing research for his new novel, which will grapple with decay and death. He interviews people who are familiar with the subject, who have suffered heavy losses or who deal with it professionally as undertakers. Boris, on the other hand, is increasingly enjoying himself in the film role of a man who steals the husband from a married woman. Play and life threaten to merge. The scenes between the two men are not melodramatic, but a reflection on relationships that is as clever as it is entertaining, both mundane and excessive at the same time.
