Synopsis

In 1978, puzzle expert Jerry Slocum and his wife Margot hosted the first International Puzzle Party in their Beverly Hills living room with just 10 guests. Forty-five years later, this exclusive, invite-only event has grown into a global gathering of the world’s most passionate puzzle collectors and designers. Collections number in the tens of thousands, and designers are pushing the limits of ingenuity and craftsmanship.

In "Puzzle Party," we meet legendary figures and rising stars in the puzzle community, exploring how these playful and often frustrating objects help people navigate grief, open new life opportunities, and build lasting, joyful relationships.
