Two Strangers Trying Not To Kill Each Other

Maggie and her husband become Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each Other after she breaks her femur and her husband becomes her caregiver.

When artist Maggie Barrett (75) breaks her femur, her husband Joel Meyerowitz (84), a world-famous photographer, becomes her caregiver.

In the shadow of mortality, each with a long and dramatic life behind them, the hard truths of life together provoke in Maggie and Joel an attempt to find a shared inner-peace while there is still time.

‘From serious injury and coping with different levels of fame to resentment and ping-pong – a powerful insight into a life shared by two charismatic creatives’ – The Guardian ★★★★☆
