“Oldenburg is an amazing festival and I’m very pleased to kick off our international fall festival tour by premiering there,” said Mirvish, who directed the film and co-wrote the screenplay with playwright Joe Hortua. “All four of these actors deliver searing, powerhouse performances, and I’m very excited to see the audience reaction.”

“Between Us” is a dark ensemble comedy exploring the bittersweet friendship between two couples who meet as old friends and discover their lives are tarnished by money, sex, success and children. In addition to Mirvish, it was produced by Hans Ritter (”Hello, I Must Be Going,” “Sound of My Voice”) and Mike S. Ryan (”The Comedy”, “Junebug”). The cinematographer was Nancy Schreiber, ASC, and the movie was edited by Dean Gonzalez.
