The film follows the life of a husband and wife who have been married for a long time but are now going through a rough patch in their lives. After her debut novel goes bust, the mainstream girl of the film seeks comfort in her marriage and avoids writing any more books. Her husband is a struggling TV writer who has recently secured a new job as a showrunner for a sitcom. As both have fantasies about other people, they discover the trials and tribulations of commitment. The film is a good sometimes hilarious take on human obsession: life success, happiness, social media, nostalgia, monogamy, and the meaning of it all.
