Jesse Eisenberg writes, directs and stars in this brilliant recent release, which expertly navigates the thin line between comedy and tragedy.

Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin play mis-matched cousins from New York, David and Benji, joining an organised tour of Poland to the visit the home of their late grandmother, a Holocaust survivor.

The Guardian gave this a five star review, calling the ‘sauntering Holocaust tour comedy’ a ‘masterpiece’.
