15 years ago, Ray and Una had a relationship that ripped their lives and families apart. They haven’t set eyes on each other since.

Now she’s found him again

Una confronts Ray at his workplace , where the two engage in a long and difficult confrontation involving Una’s continuing struggles to understand and come to terms with the what happened and her intensely conflicting emotions, which pivot between anger, curiosity, confusion, and even a persistent attachment to

Ray, whom Una loved – and she believed that he loved her.

Ray, who is himself trying to forget the past and the potential feelings he had for Una, parries her demanding questions and descriptions of her feelings and experiences, all the while uncertain of her intentions…

The play follows a gruelling conversation between the two adults, examining how the choices made 15 years ago have shaped both of their lives.

They reflect on both the good and bad memories of their relationship and what their lives have been like since it ended.

REVIEW | TRAILER

Two estranged cousins reunite for a tour through Poland to honour their beloved grandmother. The adventure takes a turn when the pair’s old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.

A comedy about two cousins (Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin) travelling to Poland to visit the house of their grandmother. Great cast and plenty of laughs but underneath some serious themes about family, male friendship and growing older are delivered with a light touch, great dialogue and in wonderful locations.

The film effortlessly walks the tonal tightrope about cousins on a holocaust tour to create a masterpiece without really trying.
