Film Society: A Real Pain (15)

Mismatched cousins David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin) reunite for a tour through Poland to honour their beloved grandmother.

Their dream is shattered as they encounter unrelenting animosity from the local villagers. Award-winning tense thriller inspired by a true story.

But their adventure takes a dark turn when the odd couple’s old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.

“An effortlessly witty, fluent and astringent comedy with a very serious overcurrent” – Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
