Adult Beginners

About This Movie

Adult Beginners is one of those indie flicks that dances on the line of comedy and drama, capturing the disarray of early adulthood. The story follows a hipster entrepreneur, whose grand plans unravel spectacularly, leading him to crash at his sister's place in the suburbs. It’s a fresh take on family dynamics, with the protagonist stepping into the unexpected role of a manny for his three-year-old nephew. The film has a pretty laid-back vibe, and there’s an interesting contrast between the hustle of New York City and the quieter, more chaotic life in the suburbs. The performances, especially from the lead, carry a sincere weight, making the character's struggles feel real without veering into melodrama. It’s a slice-of-life kind of experience, with its relatable themes and a unique perspective on failure and responsibility.
