Volveréis
Longtime partners self-consciously uncouple in this witty, chatty and loopy non-rom-com with echoes of Woody Allen.
Filmmaker Ale (Itsaso Arana) and her actor boyfriend of 14 years Alex (Vito Sanz) have decided mutually to call it quits after 14 years, cuing a very funny yet properly grown-up portrait of the ideal couple trying to smooth, and even to celebrate, their transition into ideal exes. It’s the celebration aspect that will prove their undoing. If ta good breakup is rare, a joyous breakup is completely mythical. With references to the Swedish master Ingmar Bergman’s fraught relationship with Liv Ullmann, and a style very reminiscent of early Woody Allen, this is a joyful film for real lovers of film.
