Turns out Kaz cant either. Theirs is a bond driven as much by odd habits as by shared life experiences a marriage not unlike the one rendered comatose and the only way to get their lives back on track is by playing together again.At once hilarious and heartbreaking, Doubles serves up a tale of melancholy and redemption both on the court and off.
