BREAKING UPWARDS: Breaking Upwards follows a young, real-life New York couple in a fictional narrative loosely inspired by their own relationship. After four years together, the two have grown stifled. Desperate to escape their ennui, but fearful of life apart, they decide to intricately strategize their own break up. Based on an actual experiment in real-life devised by filmmakers and partners, Daryl Wein and Zoe Lister-Jones, the film interprets a year in their lives exploring alternatives to monogamy and the madness that ensures. The couple inhabits a hyper-articulate, emotionally layered world where twenty-somethings are portrayed in a complex and thoughtful new light. An uncensored look at young love, lust and the pangs of codependency, Breaking Upwards follows its characters as they navigate each other emotions across the city they love. It begs the question: is it ever possible to grow apart together?
