Shiva Baby

STREAMING March 5th - March 14th

Twenty-something Danielle is a perennial student who’s been lying to her supportive but overbearing parents about her faltering academic career. Then again, she has a lot of secrets she’s keeping, including her relationship with Max, an older man who also gives her money. Hauled off to a shiva by her parents, she’s mortified to encounter her embittered ex, Maya, followed by other people who make things increasingly more awkward for Danielle. Much to her chagrin, she finds out that many of them have secrets of their own. Shiva Baby is a caustically affectionate comedy about tightly knit families and communities and the comfort and anguish they’re often responsible for.
