Pia and Jan have just fallen in love and arranged to meet Pia's friends for a game night. Jan meets Pia's friends for the first time and is under pressure to make the perfect first impression. When Pia's ex-boyfriend shows up and even Jan's buddy's tips can't save anything, everything is at stake: the relationship, the friendship, and the definition of truth.

VIBE

This film feels like a pressure cooker of social anxiety and escalating comedic tension. It's an awkward, suspenseful ride through a game night gone horribly wrong, where relationship dynamics and the very nature of truth are playfully, yet sharply, put to the test. Expect cringey laughs and a propulsive unraveling.
