Synopsis:
On the cusp of inheriting his father's estate, Swanson (Tim Heidecker) is a man with unlimited options. An ageing hipster in Brooklyn, he spends his days in aimless recreation with like-minded friends (Eric Wareheim) in games of comic irreverence and mock sincerity. As Swanson grows restless of the safety a sheltered life offers him, he tests the limits of acceptable behaviour, pushing the envelope in every way he can. Heidecker's deadpan delivery cleverly masks a deep desire for connection and sense in the modern world.
The Comedy wears its name on its sleeve, but director Rick Alverson's powerful and provocative character study touches a darkness behind the humour that resonates with viewers long after the story ends.
