"There comes a time in every marriage when you ask yourself, 'Is it worth it?'"
MARRIAGE WILL MAKE TO CUSS
Synopsis: Marriage Will Make You Cuss explores the winding marital journey of Henry & Lorraine Jackson. After decades of being married, Henry & Lorraine find themselves at the triangular intersection of “do nothing and remain miserable”, “separate”, or “divorce”. Lorraine feels neglected, taken for granted, and unloved in the ways she needs love the most. Henry doesn’t see the problem and can’t understand why Lorraine is so unhappy and demanding change. Though they live in the same house, they are miles apart. In the end, the Jacksons must decide if they have a marriage that's worth preserving or if they should close the curtains on it forever.
