Jan has been married to Gedda for 35 years. Gedda loves Jan so much that she smothers him: before he can grab a glass from the table, she has already given him one. She picks out his clothing, his friends, his vacations and all their other activities. In an attempt to get some space Jan concocts a strange plan that literally transforms his marriage into a locked ward. Their daughter finds herself in a similar predicament with her exacting and jealous boyfriend.
The Marriage Escape is a 2020 comedy-drama about Jan, who after 35 years of marriage to the overbearing Gedda, devises an unconventional plan to reclaim his independence. The film explores themes of autonomy and control within relationships, with parallels drawn to Jan's daughter's own struggles with a demanding partner.
