Jim Jarmusch’s Venice Golden Lion-winning comedy navigates the sometimes tender, sometimes awkward interactions between the bohemian generation and their adult children.

A return to the interlinked stories and international panorama format of Night on Earth, Jarmusch’s drama features a series of stories that concern familial relationships marked by emotional detachment. An engaging character study whose connecting motifs subtly reveal themselves, it’s beautifully shot by Frederick Elmes and Yorick le Saux, and features a fine cast, including the director’s lucky charm, Tom Waits, along with Charlotte Rampling, Vicky Krieps and Indya Moore.

A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails.

Starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson
