Friends & Lovers
After 10 years of friendship, a group of twentysomethings travel to the ski slopes as Ian's father's guests. (Ian and his father are alienated since Ian's father worked excessive hours as a teen.) Dad has something to say, but Ian is deafeningly impervious. Meanwhile, David is gay and virginal; Keaton, Ian's business partner, is unhappy that his sister Jane is pregnant and has no intention of telling the father; Lisa is everyone's friend but no one's lover; and John, trapped in adolescence, is perpetually on the run. He introduces Carla, a German-born beauty, and soon loses her affection to Hans, a quick-witted ski instructor. David meets Manny: they share a passion for chess. Soon, when relationships take new directions, surprises abound.
