The Roses, SUMMER CINEMA

To the outside world, Ivy and Theo seem like the perfect couple: they have successful careers, lots of money, a beautiful house, and smart children. This perfect-looking facade collapses like a house of cards when Theo receives bad news at work. Wanneer Theo's career plummets while Ivy's own ambitions take flight, a breeding ground of intense competition and hidden resentment arises.
