What Doesn’t Kill You is the story about two childhood friends from South Boston, who as kids, grew up in a life of crime.  As adults, they try to branch out from their bosses circles and try to work for themselves.  Things don’t go too well, but the movie isn’t about the state of their heists but the state of the personal lives of Brian (Ruffalo) and Paulie (Hawke).

We follow the two of them, with a bit more of a focus on Brian, his wife Stacy (Peet) and his kids.  It’s the impact that his lifestyle has on him and his family and how he tries to deal with it that the viewer is shown.
