Sundance 2024 - Best Screenplay Award

A Real Pain follows mismatched cousins David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin) as they reunite for a tour through Poland to honor their beloved grandmother. The adventure takes a turn when the odd couple's old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.

Anchored by spirited performances by its dynamic stars, writer-director Eisenberg's A Real Pain is a work of compassion and maturity that alternates nimbly between anxious comedy and meditative drama.

Filmography: When You Finish Saving the World (2022).
