Based on a true story, written by and starring the two guys who actually lived it, We Married Margo chronicles the relationship of two guys, complete opposites with nothing in common, who were both (at separate times) married to-and subsequently dumped by-the same woman. Ex-husband #2 moves in with ex-husband #1 and thus is born We Married Margo. This funny, well written, and deftly edited comedy, features a stable of celebrity cameos, including Tom Arnold, Kevin Bacon, Cindy Crawford, Erik Estrada, and Dan Cortese, among others.

We Married Margo and Mutual Love Life are being presented as part of the Slamdance "On the Road" program-which means that Dan Mirvish (Omaha (the movie)) and Henry Turner (Trashmonster) will guest host the Q&A session. It'll be just like Park City, only without the seat cushions and the nosebleeds.
