Going back to your hometown can be a tricky thing. Even if you’re super successful, you might still have old demons that haunt you. That seems to be the case for Eric in the new film “The Adults.”
As seen in the trailer, “The Adults” follows the story of Eric, who is coming back to his hometown after several years of being away. Unfortunately for him, his return isn’t all that great, as he has to reckon with the estranged relationships he has with his two sisters, as well as his old childhood friends.
The film stars Michael Cera, Hannah Gross, and Sophia Lillis. “The Adults” is written and directed by Dustin Guy Defa, who is probably best known for his previous film, “Person to Person.” That film also stars Cera.
“The Adults” is set to have its US Premiere at Tribeca soon and will arrive in theaters on August 18. You can watch the trailer below.
Here’s the synopsis:
“THE ADULTS” follows Eric (Cera) as he returns home for a short visit and finds himself caught between reuniting with his sisters and chasing a victory with his old poker group. As the trip extends, Eric finds it increasingly difficult to avoid confrontations and revelations as his carefully constructed façade of his adulthood gives way to old childhood conflicts. While Maggie (Lillis) attempts to recreate the intimate world the three of them once shared, Eric and Rachel (Gross) are faced with the divide between their childhood selves and the adults they are now.
