The Other Way Around (Spanish: Volveréis; titled Septembre sans attendre for the French market) is a 2024 Spanish-French comedy film directed by Jonás Trueba, who also wrote it in tandem with stars Itsaso Arana and Vito Sanz.

Plot

A couple formed by actor Alex and filmmaker Ale throws a party to announce their breakup after 15 years or relationship but none of their close ones believes them.[1]

Cast

Production

The Other Way Around is a Spanish-French co-production by Los Ilusos Films, Les Films du Worso and Arte France Cinéma.[4] Shooting locations included Madrid.[5]

Release

The film had its world premiere in the Directors' Fortnight sidebar section of the 77th Cannes Film Festival on 20 May 2024.[6] It also made it to the competitive slate of the 38th Cabourg Film Festival.[7] Distributed by Elastica, it is scheduled to be released theatrically in Spain on 30 August 2024.[8] Arizona Distribution will release the film in France on 28 August 2024.[9][10]

Reception

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 100% of 8 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.5/10.[11]

Adam Solomons of IndieWire gave the film a 'B' rating, considering it "a refreshingly grown-up entry to a genre that seems to have got sillier and blander in recent years".[3]

Reviewing for the International Cinephile Society, Alonso Aguilar rated the film 4 out of 5 stars, deeming it to be "a genuine attempt to capture something ephemeral, and try to frame it in all ways possible, before finally surrendering to its fleeting beauty".[12]

Jonathan Holland of ScreenDaily wrote that Trueba "continues to satisfy film buffs with plenty of fun self-referential elements, designed to appeal to purists".[13]

Luis Martínez of El Mundo gave the film 4 stars, deeming it to be "a rare miracle of the poetics of everyday [life]".[14]
