The conflict of a love triangle

DramaComedy

A marriage crisis between a writer and his wife leads her to flee to Germany and eventually return with another man, through whom the writer is going to overcome his writer's block.

VIBE

A dryly witty, yet melancholic exploration of marital ennui and creative stagnation. It feels like a smoke-filled room discussion on art and infidelity, steeped in sophisticated European ennui and a touch of bohemian detachment.
