Covino and Marvin’s Libre Échange Set for French Release on September 10

The duo’s second feature extends the sly relationship satire of The Climb into a new story about polyamory.

Overview

  • The film follows two friend-couples experimenting with polyamory, using the setup to send up male mediocrity.
  • Kyle Marvin plays Carey, Michael Angelo Covino plays Paul, and Dakota Johnson plays Julie.
  • Libre Échange deliberately flips a key gag from The Climb (2020) to create a playful echo between the works.
  • French distribution is credited to Metropolitan Films.
  • L’Humanité presents the filmmakers as rising voices in American independent comedy with this sophomore feature.
