Affinities

The film follows Day and Fanny Illington alongside Ferd and Ida Jackson, who take a weekend trip together. During the getaway, Day becomes preoccupied with golf, neglecting Fanny, while Ida also ignores Ferd. At Day's urging, the couples attend an island "affinity" party, intended for those feeling overlooked by their spouses.

However, the couples accidentally find themselves stranded on the island, only to discover that Day and Ida have been engaging in their own affinity gathering. The narrative explores themes of infidelity and the complexities of marital relationships, culminating in a resolution where the characters realize the true affinities they have with their spouses. With a runtime of 60 minutes, Affinities captures the essence of early 20th-century comedy and drama, making it a unique entry from the silent film era.
