Common ground: married couple

The difference: Not nearly as dreamlike as If I Were You 2

The difference: Leans harder into drama than If I Were You 2 does

An absurdist, surrealistic and shocking pitch-black comedy, which moves freely from nightmare to fantasy to hilariously deadpan humour as it muses on man’s perpetual inhumanity to man.
