About the film

A reunion between friends that starts with enjoyment and laughter becomes a cohabitation that will bring up old conflicts, hidden secrets, and unexpected encounters. Like an x-ray of those who are in their 40s, Break dives into the duality of family life, the fantasy of returning to one’s teenage years, pending wishes, the contradictions of the bourgeois life, and the time that escapes us.

Break is both a dynamic comedy and tender drama. Replete with identifiable characters, it shines a refreshing light on anxieties about middle age, in a manner that is bold, attractive and undeniably funny.
