After a one-night stand on a business trip, two people in unhappy marriages come together on the anniversary to relive a night of passion.

SYNOPSIS:

"Before Sunrise" meets "The Affair", combining a heartfelt exploration of fleeting connections with the raw tension of lives tangled in moral ambiguity.

Marcus Goldberg, a struggling screenwriter, and Sara Jaber, an Iraqi-American compliance officer, meet by chance on a red-eye flight from London to New York. Their shared wit and chemistry spark an instant connection, one that lingers long after they part ways. Both married and deeply entrenched in their respective lives—Marcus, a dreamer grappling with the disillusionment of Hollywood, and Sara, a perfectionist balancing the expectations of family and career—they reunite a year later, beginning a decade-long series of secret, annual rendezvous.

What begins as a brief escape from the confines of their everyday lives soon evolves into a complex, emotionally charged relationship that neither can seem to abandon. Through stolen weekends in hotels, conversations that range from the mundane to the profound, and moments of raw vulnerability, Marcus and Sara become each other's confidants, muses, and, ultimately, the people who know them best. However, as their connection deepens, so do the stakes. Marcus’s ambitions as a writer clash with his crumbling marriage, while Sara’s role as a mother and her immigrant identity leave her torn between loyalty and self-fulfillment.

Their shared bond becomes both a sanctuary and a battlefield, forcing them to question the lives they’ve built and the compromises they’ve made to sustain them. Forever and Never is a poignant exploration of ambition, identity, and forbidden love, asking: can you ever truly leave your old life behind, or are some connections destined to remain incomplete?
