Days before America’s most traumatic election, a couple on the verge of a nervous break-up decide to split their house up over the weekend. Desperate to make new connections, Jane and Eugene find themselves in a series of unpredictable misadventures, sexual escapades and emotional traumas. From this simple premise we delve into a manic and hilarious world of lust and mistrust, revealing the identity crises and narcissistic self-loathing at the core of the millennial experience.

“A gorgeous, narcissistic relationship nightmare… As genius as it is unique.”
— Lena Wilson, The Playlist
“Without ever being dismissive or cruel, Wobble Palace faithfully shows the bitter truths about our gameified culture.”
