Overview
- The film had its world premiere today at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City and is being shopped for distribution.
- Adapted from Adam Cayton-Holland’s memoir, the story engages with grief and PTSD following a sister’s suicide without abandoning humor.
- Cooper Raiff leads the cast, joined by Kaitlyn Dever, David Duchovny, Hope Davis and Lucy Boynton.
- Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon brought the project to Duplass and asked him to direct the first-time screenwriter’s adaptation.
- After roughly 13 years away from original features, Duplass returns, selecting Raiff over a higher-profile lead as established actors signed on despite modest pay.
