Dinner with Friends

Shot in 9 days on a budget of $100k, Dinner with Friends follows eight friends trying to hold on to their group as they get older and life gets complicated. Over a series of dinners, the group deals with loyalty, loss, and an uncertain future as relationships shift and secrets are unraveled, with each dinner bringing its own dynamic-shifting announcement of reconciliation, unexpected relationships, and betrayal. The city is crumbling, the climate is changing, and worries about the future of the world are making it hard for this group of friends to stay together. But they’ll come to realize everything would be much harder if they don’t.

Directed by Sasha Leigh Henry, Dinner with Friends leans on a strong ensemble — Tattiawna Jones, Izaak Smith, Andrew Bushell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
