Steinunn Ketilsdottir and Brian Gerke / Love Always, Debbie and Susan

Osijek, Croatia

14 May '09

Is it an unexpected or expected relationship? A random house hosts a chance meeting between an Icelandic woman and an American man. What follows is a classic screenplay: a love story, engagement, wedding, children, and family life in Los Angeles. Is it all really as perfect as it seems? A hysterical woman versus a phlegmatic man? Or are they two doves? Stepping back to look at things from a distance and applying irony are solutions to any situation.
