Duration: 90'
The atmosphere in a craft beer brewery is very different from that of any other workplace. To the colleagues Kate and Luke, it’s normal to stop for a beer and a chat after the end of the workday and, inevitably, flow with that slightly alcoholic harmony that is the basis of the best friendships. And, in fact, the two consider themselves just friends. Both of them are engaged to someone else, and it doesn’t cross their mind to figure out if their close bond couldn’t lead to something else. But, as always, the more they pretend everything is fine, the more fate conspires to make them face up to some unanswered questions.

Declaration
film director
“The inspiration originally came from two places: the first was studio comedies of the early 70s, specifically Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice and Elaine May’s The Heartbreak Kid, that never forgot to be funny, which earned them the space to also be complex and challenging. The second inspiration was the craft beer world. Craft beer is the most exciting business in America right now, if you ask me, and I wanted to get inside a world that I love.”
