The Adults
Some adults need to grow up.
Directed by Dustin Guy Defa
Produced by Savage Rose Films, Dweck Productions
A character-driven comedy-drama about a man returning home and confronting the gap between his adult self-image and unresolved family dynamics.
Eric returns home for a short visit and finds himself caught between reuniting with his sisters and chasing a victory with his old poker group. As the trip extends, Eric finds it increasingly difficult to avoid confrontations and revelations as his carefully constructed façade of his adulthood gives way to old childhood conflicts.
