Calamity and comedy ensue as a blundering father struggles to bring his family back together at the request of his ailing but obstinate mother. Fans of Little Miss Sunshine will love this touching and uplifting comedy.
Lenny Rubins, (Timothy Spall) an up-tight lawyer, has to put his dream retirement on hold when his ailing mother (Honor Blackman) emotionally blackmails him into reuniting his estranged children for a Jewish holiday.
They may be peas from the same pod, but in Lenny’s eyes his grown up children are certainly not from the same planet: a survival-of-the-fittest hard-nosed capitalist
(James Callis), an outspoken eco-warrior committed to the cause (Rhona Mitra); an outer worldly Buddhist Monk; and to cap it all a bible bashing born-again Rabbi!
They might not see eye to eye, quarrel, fight, but they are still family and it is going to take a whole lot of soul searching and sacrifice for all involved to come together in this heart warming, family comedy that will have you thinking of your own family with a smile.
Starring: Timothy Spall, Blake Harrison, Rhona Mitra, James Callis, Honor Blackman
