Cousins Benji (Kieran Culkin) and David (Jesse Eisenberg) take a trip to Poland to pay tribute to their recently deceased Holocaust survivor grandmother. Once very close, the two realise that over time they’ve completely drifted apart. David is married and has a child, he’s serious, busy and somewhat reserved, while Benji is completely unpredictable and not ready to grow up. Winner of Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at Sundance, A Real Pain is a gritty and funny road movie about family, identity, history and the neuroses of modern adulthood. The second directorial achievement of Jesse Eisenberg, who also penned the screenplay and stars in the film.
