DramaComedy

When a man decides to marry the woman he's been living with, she stops being the silent patient person she was and claims to be the boss in the house. Her behaviour changes so much after the marriage that the husband gets so irritated as to ask for a divorce even a few hours later..

VIBE

A dizzying, laugh-out-loud romp through the early days of marriage. Expect rapid-fire dialogue, escalating absurdity, and a whirlwind of domestic chaos that feels both classic and surprisingly modern.
