This Spanish marital drama finds Itsaso Arana and Vito Sanz planning a party to mark their separation. But not everyone thinks it’s a good idea

A little bit like Woody Allen, or an episode of Seinfeld minus the stream of gags, this talky Spanish comedy tells the story of a couple planning a break-up party. It follows film director Ale (Itsaso Arana) and her soon to be ex, actor Alex (Vito Sanz), as they call it quits after 14 years together. The decision is mutual, and as reasonable people who still like each other, they think they can split without the pain and heartache. “We’ve separated, but we’re OK!” says Alex, so many times it starts to sound hollow.

So, alongside the breakup admin (deciding who gets to stay in their amazingly cheap rented flat in Madrid and dividing the DVDs), they organise a party to mark their uncoupling. The idea originally comes from Ale’s dad (played by director Jonás Trueba’s father, veteran film-maker Fernando), who has a theory that people should celebrate separations. Her brother says the idea is corny and American. The pair’s friends are shocked: “You’re the perfect couple!” says one with that panicky look people get when a solid-seeming couple splits, like it might be contagious.

More from that game – which was Germany’s seventh successive win in the Women’s Euros group stages, conceding just two goals across those matches.

Christian Wück’s side were denied twice by VAR early in the game, with the technology facing criticism for how long it took to reach those decisions. A Klara Buhl goal was chalked off and a penalty claim overturned as the Danish infringement was outside the box.
