Go Get Some Rosemary.
Directed by Josh Safdie, Benny Safdie
Produced by Red Bucket Films, NASA Entertainment
A darkly comedic, intimate portrait of a father's struggle between parental responsibility and friendship, told through escalating chaos and boundary-blurring with his young sons.
After months of living a solitary existence, Lenny, 34, picks up his kids from school. Every year he spends a couple of weeks with his sons Sage, 9, and Frey, 7. Lenny hosts his kids within a midtown studio apartment in New York. During these two weeks, he must figure out if he wants to act as their father or be their friend. Ultimately, their trip upstate results in complete lawlessness taking over their lives.
