An objectionable comedy about disappointment and forgiveness.

ComedyRomance

JR has broken up with her professor. She enlists her nervous and obnoxious younger brother Colin to take a short road trip in order to help move out her belongings. They bicker and fight, with one another and pretty much anybody they encounter, before being brought to a place of togetherness and understanding as a result of being pushed away by everybody in their lives except one another.

VIBE

This film feels like a deeply uncomfortable, yet strangely endearing, indie comedy. It’s a cringe-fest of awkward interactions and biting dialogue, exploring the messy bonds of family with a raw, unfiltered honesty that’s both hilarious and painful.
