Directors Josh and Benny Safdie in person! Make it a Double Feature with An Evening with the Safdie Brothers!

Thirty-four-year-old Lenny (Ronnie Bronstein), with graying frazzled hair and wrapped up in the loneliness and freedom of a semi-directionless, solipsistic life, picks up his kids from school. This is his yearly two weeks with Sage, 9, and Frey, 7, and their time together is a jumble of lawless fun, strange visitors and adventurous excursions from Lenny’s Midtown apartment.  A madcap drama about a man pondering his relationship with his sons and wondering: am I their father, or their friend?
