Marriage is a decision sometimes enforced by society and religion. Tom Rasmussen, coming from a working-class northern family, explores the allure of this institution, often linked to patriarchy and the elite. Why do many post proposal pictures on Instagram while opposing social injustices? Is it possible to be married and simultaneously rebel against the institution? Through different marriages and encounters with people who have married many times or question their decision, Rasmussen offers an in-depth and humorous analysis of marriage and what it means in relation to sexuality and social class.
