Fair Play

 


     Written and directed by Chloe Domont, this is a really fun and nasty piece of work about gender and office politics in the world of high finance.

     Phoebe Dynevor and Alden Ehrenreich star as Emily and Luke, two analysts at a major hedge fund. They live together and plan on getting married but are keeping their relationship secret at work since its against corporate policy. When one is promoted over the other it changes their dynamic at at the office as well as at home, and not for the better.

     Eddie Marsan plays Campbell plays the company's demanding CEO and Rich Somers plays Paul, his right hand man. Ms. Dynevor and Mr. Ehrenreich are dynamite together and figuratively blow up the film.    

     This is a great little feature about sex, power, and corporate greed. In limited theaters and on Netflix.
