Overview

• I Don’t Understand You premiered at South by Southwest last year and opened in theaters on June 6.
• Nick Kroll and Andrew Rannells play Dom and Cole, a married couple whose Italian babymoon before their adoption descends into comic miscommunications and accidental violence.
• Writer-directors Brian Crano and David Joseph Craig drew on their own adoption journey and a travel nightmare in Italy to craft the film’s semi-autobiographical narrative.
• The leads’ longstanding friendship translated into on-screen chemistry that directors say made their portrayal of a devoted couple feel effortless.
• The film employs dark humor to explore cultural misunderstandings, the lengths parents will go for their children, and positive gay representation outside of tragic tropes.
