A sharp, recognisable and deliciously honest romantic comedy about life as it is.

What happens when two exes with their adolescents, their frustrations and their unfinished emotions end up under the same roof again due to housing shortages and bad luck? How long can that go well?

In Housemates, we follow Claudia, Kai and their adolescent daughters during a year full of misunderstandings, new loves, old feelings and far too little privacy. While forced to live under one roof, they struggle with their divorce, their children, new lovers and, above all, themselves. And then it turns out that some feelings won't let themselves be moved. As boundaries blur and emotions clash, it becomes painfully and hilariously clear that some loves are more tenacious than you'd like.

Messy, touching and often incredibly funny

Roommates is a sharp, recognisable and deliciously honest romantic comedy about life as it is: messy, touching and often incredibly funny. For anyone who lives together, has lived together, or keeps bravely trying.
