After returning to the same hotel they met 30 years ago, a married couple struggles to attend the same teenager events from their first summer together in order to restore their love.
This doesn't describe a plot, what does the couple want and are they both the main characters? Would it not be better to make one of them the MC?

As it is, there is no conflict; what stops whom from achieving what? There is a slight possibility for a few melodramatic moments in which a married couple raises doubts about their relationship, but that’s not enough for a whole film and, as DPG pointed out, it certainly isn’t enough to attract a large audience. You need to rais the stakes beyond the emotional burden of an impending divorce.

But they renege and deport him to Guatemala, where gangs chase him on a harrowing journey back to the US to reunite with his family.
So is the main action of the story him getting back to the family or him gaining a citizenship? These feel like two separate plots, which one is the story going to focus on? Hint, it can't be both, you need to choose one plot unified under the pursuite of one goal.

If the MC’s? inciting incident is discovering his lack of a US citizenship then his goal should be getting one, therefore, reuniting with his family is not the best choice of goal. He can reunite with them in many other countries, the point is that there seems to be a disconnect in the logic that causally binds the inciting incident and goal.
Secondly, on the matter of logic, I’m not sure it’s possible to enlist unless one is a citizen. How could he have gone through life and a military service without being a citizen?
