ABOUT

SYNOPSIS 

IT’S JUST SEX is a provocative romantic sex comedy about swapping and the challenges of  today’s relationships.  It tells the story of 3 committed couples over the course of one crazy,  spontaneous, fateful night.   

Phil and Joan are in the midst of a serious marital crisis as their good friends Carl and Kelly and  Greg and Lisa are on the way over for a routine cocktail party.  But as the tequila flows, party  games are played and we soon discover Carl and Kelly and Greg and Lisa have some deep,  unspoken, relationship issues of their own. Secrets, truths, resentments and desires are  revealed, culminating in an unexpected and wildly hilarious swap. The resulting effects on their  marriages and friendships, as well as their views of honesty, monogamy, lust and trust, are  hysterically funny, thought-provoking, relatable and, ultimately, deeply moving.
