Join Tommy & Amy as they stumble into the house of mirrors created by the shifting identities of Chapter 22 of Miranda July's All Fours. They explore the new terrain created inside a spontaneous few days of role playing between our main character and her husband. Can we be more honest inside fiction then we can in real life? And does that honesty mean that real constructs (like marriage) can dissolve inside of that fiction AND in reality? 

It's a BIG chapter, full of so many opportunities for real discussion about connection inside of and outside of marriage. Is it makeup sex or something much much more profound?
