POSTER

SHORT SYNOPSIS

The emotional fallout following the breakup of a ten-year relationship in which very little had actually gone wrong.

SYNOPSIS

HE is an architect. SHE is an interior designer. They first met at work and fell in love instantly, although for different reasons. During their ten year relationship little had actually gone wrong. Comfort defined not only their design aesthetic but also the way they ‘did’ life and their relationship. But things have recently changed for Him. Having recently met another woman, he has grown weary of all that was once comfortable and comforting. On one afternoon, shortly after coming home from work, he tells Her of his intention to end their relationship. What happens next, can only be told without words; and in one single, painful, shot.

The Breakup is an uncomfortable, suspenseful and unnerving drama about the trauma of a relationship breakup.
