Fifteen years ago, Mel (Madeleine Sami) and Jen (Jackie van Beek) discovered that they were being two-timed by the same man. Bitter and cynical, they became fast friends and formed The Breaker Upperers, a small-time business breaking up couples for cash. Fast-forward to their late-thirties and business is booming – they are a platonic, co-dependent couple that keep their cynicism alive by not getting emotionally involved with anybody else. But when they run into an old victim, Mel develops a conscience and their friendship is truly put to the test.
Fresh from the mind of the hilarious multidisciplinary Taika Waititi, The Breaker Upperers is a fun and insightftul look at the lucrative business of heartbreak.
