Games People Play
It's their last weekend of being young
Directed by Jenni Toivoniemi
Produced by Tuffi Films
A bittersweet ensemble comedy-drama about old friends confronting the gap between their youthful selves and their adult realities during a fraught weekend getaway.
Group of old friends gather in a summer villa to celebrate a surprise birthday party for Mitzi, who is the dramatic focal point of the group. The weekend starts ominously when Mitzi does not respond well to the surprise party. It turns out that Mitzi has just filed for divorce and has been looking forward to a peaceful weekend. The tense situation takes a new turn when Mitzi's best friend brings her new boyfriend for a visit, who happens to be a Swedish film star. Familiar surroundings and the old rituals get to the core of the group and make them forget their adulthood. Revelations, not meant to harm the balance, make them reassess their past as well as their present.
