Q&A with writer-director and No Film School podcast host GG Hawkins to follow the screening.

When a woman grows disillusioned with her golden-boy husband during their tropical honeymoon, she recruits an enigmatic expat to spice things up—for better or worse.

Just one year into her marriage, Teresa hopes her honeymoon in the tropical paradise of Bocas del Toro, Panamá will be the pinnacle of her relationship thus far. Yet, upon arrival, her husband Drew’s people-pleasing begins to push her to the edge. Stripped of the routines that barely sustain their newlywed bond and unwilling to confront her true feelings, Teresa becomes captivated by Paz, a free-spirited expat who manages their vacation rental. Driven by this infatuation, Teresa suggests a wild way to spice up her marriage.
