Seven college friends reunite in a remote country house after one of their own, Alex, attempts suicide, forcing them to confront the fragile bonds that have frayed over the years. As the group gathers to support their troubled friend, old tensions and buried resentments surface, testing the limits of their loyalty and love. Led by the practical and sharp-witted Sarah, played by Aubrey Plaza, and her earnest boyfriend Josh, portrayed by Max Greenfield, the ensemble includes the ambitious Ben, brought to life by Nate Parker, and the free-spirited Sivan, played by Maggie Grace. Directed by Jesse Zwick, this intimate drama explores the messy, uncomfortable reality of friendship when it is pushed to its breaking point. With a tone that balances raw emotional honesty and moments of dark humor, the film delves into themes of mental health, forgiveness, and the quiet desperation that can lurk beneath the surface of seemingly stable lives. As the weekend unfolds, each character must decide whether their bond with Alex—and with each other—is worth salvaging, even when the truth is deeply unsettling.
