What do you do when your celebrated playwright uncle dies and sparks your jealous father's quest for vindication, while your mother is in the midst of a mid-life crisis? You break up with your shiksa girlfriend, of course! That’s exactly what 20-something Ethan does when he starts to co-pilot his father’s journey of catharsis. The days that follow fill with irony, mischief, and hilarity, as if they have been lifted from one of his uncle’s plays.
