Absurdist Comedy 'Bubble & Squeak' Garners Attention at Sundance 2025

Evan Twohy's feature debut explores a couple's cabbage-smuggling escapade in a fictional country with humor and emotional depth.

'Bubble & Squeak,' directed by Evan Twohy, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and has drawn attention for its unique premise and absurdist tone.
The film stars Himesh Patel and Sarah Goldberg as a honeymooning couple smuggling cabbages into a fictional country where the vegetable is banned.
The story blends humor with emotional exploration, focusing on the couple's relationship struggles as they navigate increasingly bizarre scenarios.
The project, which Twohy began developing as a teenager, features a collaborative effort from a cast that includes Matt Berry, Dave Franco, and producer Steven Yeun.
Critics have highlighted the film's quirky charm and deadpan performances, though some note that its singular premise can feel repetitive at times.
