Fair Play (18) (AD)

— ,Cinemas
A man and a woman hold each other in a bathroom, seen from a mirror.

A sweet couple quickly turn sour when they enter a power play for the same promotion in this sinister thriller - with Phoebe Dynevor and Luke Alden Ehrenreich.

When a coveted promotion at a cut-throat financial firm arises, once supportive exchanges between lovers Emily (Phoebe Dynevor) and Luke (Alden Ehrenreich) begin to sour into something more sinister.

In her feature debut, writer-director Chloe Domont weaves a taut relationship thriller, staring down the destructive gender dynamics that pit partners against each other in a world that is transforming faster than the rules can keep up.

Also starring Eddie Marsan, Rich Sommer, and Sebastian De Souza, Fair Play unravels the uncomfortable collision of empowerment and ego.
