'Older Children': Chicago's the setting for some universal characters ★★★

The makers of the Chicago-sprung indie "Older Children" have not bitten off more than they can chew: The film barely runs an hour in length, and in his group portrait of married and single friends — variously rudderless, self-protective and looking for something more — writer-director Duncan Riddell maintains a neat, well-paced familiarity.
