CHARLOTTE ON
“TWO STRANGERS TRYING NOT TO KILL EACH OTHER”
“I was blown away by Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each Other - it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen before - and it immediately shot onto my list of favourite documentaries.
Talking to Maggie, Joel, Jacob and Manon, I was astonished at how willing they were to open up to the shared experience of making this movie together.
Together we deep dive into how living side by side allowed Manon and Jacob to capture breathtakingly intimate moments and deeply important conversations.
Films strive so hard to capture what it means to be human - but Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each other manages rare insight into just that .”
