Dirty Laundry

A humorous and moving story about a couple married for twenty years.
He – an architect. She – a housewife raising children. Both have lived a calm life without major adventures, until they decide to breathe new life into their relationship and rekindle their passion. Armed with the guidebook Sex for the Uninhibited, they set off for a weekend in an exclusive hotel.

Before they even open the book, they are confronted with honest conversations and painful reckonings from the past. What begins as a romantic getaway soon turns into a stormy exchange filled with tension. The advice from the guidebook causes more embarrassment than excitement, yet ultimately they discover that true love lies not in fleeting thrills, but in everyday closeness, trust, and a deep sense of security – the real foundation of their marriage.
