Why watch this film?
Movie with very few settings and only a handful of characters, reminiscent of 'God of Carnage', 'Du Sie Er & Wir' tells the story of two couples who, after a sexual experience between them, must face each other when they meet again in an isolated beach house and discover that everything has changed. Mix of comedy, romance and drama, the feature film directed by Florian Gottschick ('Nachthelle') draws attention to the new love relationships in the contemporary world, also bringing social discomfort.

Romance
Tonight You're Sleeping with Me
This is a Polish romantic drama exclusive to Netflix that with touches of eroticism addresses themes such as the deterioration of marriage and infidelity. The plot of Tonight You're Sleeping with Me follows a journalist trapped in a marriage that has lost its passion with a distant but affectionate husband. On the other hand, there is a younger ex-boyfriend who returns to her life and awakens in her the desire she thought was lost. There are no too surprising twists or too scandalous images: if you want something romantic but predictable, this is a good option.
Love at First Kiss
Impossible relationships and love triangles are basic ingredients of romantic comedies, as are those clichés that "a kiss can tell you everything about a person." Love at First Kiss (Eres tú) is a Spanish production that takes this last idea to a curious extreme: Javier (Álvaro Cervantes) has the power of clairvoyance, since with a kiss he can see the entire future of a relationship. This has led him to end all of his relationships quickly, but everything changes when he kisses Lucía (Silvia Alonso), with whom he sees a happy future... But the problem is that she is his best friend's (Gorka Otxoa) girlfriend. The entanglements and dramas follow a predictable course for any fan of the romantic comedy genre, but those who seek that repetition of the formula to spend a quiet and entertaining time, will enjoy it.
A Sunday Affair
Two best friends, Uche and Toyin, fall in love with Sunday, a charming, yet flawed eligible bachelor. A love triangle ensues with the women unaware that they are dating the same man.
At Midnight
Two people who do their best not to fall in love. It's centered on Alejandro, who lives a predictable life according to plan, and Sophie, a beautiful rising movie star with an unreliable celebrity boyfriend. During a visit to Mexico's beach to shoot scenes for her new movie, Super Society, Sophie falls in love with the hotel manager. Neither of them will be able to avoid falling in love and going against all odds.
