ALTARED
The Short:
A movie that measures the fine line between love and hate. One lie, a jealous mind, a misunderstanding and just like that - the line is crossed. For these three couples, the question is not what happened, but can they cross back over to the other side.
The Long:
George has been divorced for 15 years, for a reason he never really understood. With his wife went his daughter and any chance at being a father to her. Now George has found someone and is about to get remarried, only he's worried it will all go sour again. Joyce is more optimistic about the marriage. She knows why her first marriage ended and is ready to move on with her life. Ever since her only daughter, Emma, moved out of the house, things have been a little too empty. If only Emma shared a little of Joyce's optimism over the wedding.
But Emma, 24, is too concerned with finishing up her master's thesis. Insecure and unsure of a lot of things, Emma is sure she's in love with Mathis, her boyfriend. After his art and his self, Emma is the most importing thing to Mathis. At 30, Mathis sees no point in concerning himself with marriage and is nominally happy with his life with Emma. But, he strongly disapproves of his best friend, Carl's, recent marriage.
Straight-laced Carl leads a life of mediocrity. So when his hot, young girlfriend of six months, Lucy, mentioned marriage and a baby, Carl said, "I do." But Lucy was just a bit too good to be true, as Carl quickly found out.
