The Next 365 Days

The Next 365 Days is a 2022 Polish erotic drama film directed by Barbara Białowąs and Tomasz Mandes. Serving as a sequel to 365 Days: This Day (2022), it is based on the third novel of a trilogy by Blanka Lipińska, and stars Anna-Maria Sieklucka, Michele Morrone, Simone Susinna, Magdalena Lamparska and Otar Saralidze. As with its predecessors, the film was universally panned. Plot Massimo visits the grave of his twin brother, Adriano, who was killed during the events of the previous film. He then checks on Laura, who survived and is healing from Adriano's attack. Despite the doctor recommending no intimacy until she has time to heal, the sexually frustrated Laura seduces Massimo during one of his business meetings. Later, when relaxing with her best friend Olga, Laura muses on her miraculous survival and wonders what she should do with her second chance. She then receives a phone call from Nacho, who apologizes for lying to her, and says that he cannot stop thinking about her. Laura rebuffs him, but admits to Olga that, despite being married, she is struggling with her strong attraction to Massimo's rival. The friends go to a club to unwind, and Laura later meets up with Massimo, and they have sex after watching a private strip performance. However, Massimo is still troubled by Laura's previous escape with Nacho to a private island, and accuses her of cheating on him; he is also still upset she had not told him about her pregnancy. Laura accuses his family of being the reason that she lost her baby. The next morning, Massimo tries to reconcile with Laura by having sex, but she begins to imagine Nacho instead, and he stops when he realizes that she is distracted. Massimo goes to a kink club with his associates, but does not cheat on Laura.
