Project Overview:Seeking a talented, hungry, and collaborative emerging screenwriter to partner with a retired professional to co-write a highly personal, raw, and cinematically rich dark domestic comedy-drama. The story is based entirely on true events and chronicling the turbulent, high-stakes final chapters of a 40-year marriage.The narrative spans major geographical and emotional contrasts—from the forced liquidation of properties in Florida and Montana, through a terrifying double medical crisis (surviving melanoma and an ascending aortic aneurysm/open-heart surgery alone), to a profound "reversal of roles" caretaker dynamic. The story builds toward a gripping, unique modern climax: the negotiation of a business-like "Co-habitation Agreement" where the husband lives as a rent-paying tenant in his former family home, fighting to establish his own boundaries and identity.
