Two friends reunite over a weekend in Melbourne in this hilarious, improvised ode to mid-twenties friendship.

When old friend Em visits on a whim, Jessie becomes a tour guide. As they walk the streets trying to reconnect, they find increasingly funny ways to distract themselves from their problems and the uncertainty of their futures. Almost entirely improvised on a budget of 5000 Australian dollars (about £2500), Sophie Somerville’s mumblecore first feature is a raw and deeply relatable portrait of the messiness of adult life.

"What truly sets Fwends apart is its honest and compassionate portrayal of growing apart without bitterness or blame." — Cody Allen, The Curb
