3 couples in lockdown drama 'Life Upside Down' with Bob Odenkirk

"It's been so long since we've been together." IFC Films has unveiled the trailer for an independent film titled Life Upside Down, formerly known as Worlds Apart, written and directed by filmmaker Cecilia Miniucchi. This is another lockdown project, finally coming out after its first sidebar premiere at the Venice Film Festival, Venice Days, a few months ago. Three couples who know each other are stuck at home during the start of the confinement. Jonathan, Clarissa and Paul will soon see their lives turned upside down, forced to look at each other and ultimately to look at themselves. Forced to honestly face their spouses, friends, lovers, as well as look at themselves in the mirror. The independent film stars Bob Odenkirk, Radha Mitchell, Danny Huston, Rosie Fellner, Cyrus Pahlavi, Terence Bernie Hines and Jeanie Lim. Seems pretty tough, like a lot of pandemic-inspired "what happened to us during lockdown" movies in recent years. Not much to see here.

Here is the official trailer (+ poster) for Life Upside Down by Cecilia Miniucchi, direct from YouTube:

Cecilia Miniucchi's Life Upside Down is a romantic comedy about time, distance and the human condition.
