Director/Writer Noah Baumbach's follow-up to THE SQUID AND THE WHALE is an exploration of the tender, absurd and sometimes excruciating relationship between siblings, and the fallout for those in their wake: children, husbands, lovers. Margot (NICOLE KIDMAN), a savagely bright writer who creates chaos wherever she goes, sets off on a surprise journey to the ill-fated wedding of her estranged sister Pauline (JENNIFER JASON LEIGH) and her unemployed artist fiancé Malcolm (JACK BLACK). As the wedding approaches, one complication crashes into the next as the two sisters find themselves at an unexpected precipice.
