Separation City

Separation City is a comedy-drama about the complications that ensue as two marriages collapse. Men's groups and midlife crises in Wellington make up the world in which the multinational cast explores "biology and human nature" (as scriptwriter Tom Scott put it). Separation City marked the first solo film script by the ex political cartoonist, who honed his writing skills on a run of TV projects during the two-decade journey to bring the film to the screen. The behind the scenes material includes interviews with director Paul Middleditch, an Australian-based Kiwi, plus actors Joel Edgerton and Danielle Cormack. 

I really wanted to go to assertiveness training, but Joanne wouldn't let me.
