Mismatched cousins reunite for a tour through Poland to honour their beloved grandmother, but their old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.

"Eisenberg in his second film directing has created something special, a bittersweet, comic but poignant drama about humanity, centrally about two very different cousins, brilliantly played by Eisenberg as the boring one, but especially Culkin as the irrepressible annoying wild conscience of the film. The rest of the cast are great too by the way- it's brilliantly cast, and also features inspired use of Chopin. In the end, if a film that is shadowed by such tragic history can ever be so, its humanity and depth create something life affirming."
