A tense, intimate portrait of a deteriorating marriage laid bare during a single dinner party, where the arrival of vibrant neighbors forces a couple to confront years of emotional starvation.

Leni and Paul are „all good!“, as Paul likes to emphasise. But on this evening even he realises that this is not true at all. Their new neighbours, Mariam and Ayla, who come over for dinner embody exactly what Leni and Paul have not been for one another as a couple for years. While finishing up dessert, the relationship of the perfect couple, centered on their fluffy dog Amor, unfolds.
