Animals

Sophie Hyde directs this comedy set in Dublin with Holliday Grainger and Alia Shawkat in the lead roles as two female friends in their thirties whose relationship undergoes scrutiny when one of them gets engaged.

Laura (Grainger) and Tyler (Shawkat) share a flat and have spent much of their twenties partying together, but as those around them begin to settle down the pair obstinately refuse to change their ways and continue to live their hedonistic lifestyle.

However, when Laura meets concert pianist Jim (Fra Fee) and their whirlwind romance results in an engagement she sees a lot less of Tyler.

His teetotal lifestyle and dedication to his profession motivates Laura to reconsider her own ambitions of becoming a writer.

But how will these changes affect her relationship with Tyler?
