Academy Award nominee Jesse Eisenberg writes, directs, and stars in this touching, witty drama alongside Emmy Award winner Kieran Culkin. After the death of their beloved grandmother, polar-opposite cousins Benji (Culkin) and David (Eisenberg) reunite to tour Poland in her honor. As their personalities clash and old tensions rise, the cousins find a middle ground through exploring their family’s jewish history. Clever and sincere, A Real Pain explores the joy and struggle of familial relationships and the bonds formed through intergenerational trauma and loss.

“A frequently laugh-out-loud funny odd couple road trip movie whose emotional wallop sneaks up and floors you…” — David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
Winner — Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award — Sundance Film Festival
