The Roses are a model family. Theo is a famous architect, Ivy is the imaginative chef of a restaurant, they have two children, and their life seems to be going well. Until Theo's latest monumental creation collapses before everyone's eyes, while Ivy's restaurant suddenly goes viral and, shortly thereafter, becomes super crowded. Balances, rhythms of life, and power roles are overturned, and the couple's relationship deteriorates, turning their marriage into a battlefield of spite, vitriolic remarks, envy, jealousy, fierce arguments, and increasingly lethal acts of revenge. This is not a simple remake of the 1989 cult film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler, but a strictly British reworking of the eternal love-hate relationship, different from the previous version in every respect (including the ending) and endowed with an unmistakable, irreverent, and sharp humor.
