The Humans

Stephen Karam has successfully adapted his riveting Tony Award-winning play for the big screen. Featuring a cast of acting heavyweights, including Beanie Feldstein, Steven Yuen, Richard Jenkins and Amy Schumer, the story follows the Blake family during the course of one holiday dinner.

Having just moved into their downtown Manhattan apartment, youngest daughter Brigid (Feldstein, Booksmart, Lady Bird) and her boyfriend Richard (Yeun, Minari, The Walking Dead) are hosting the family for the first time. Desperately in need of some renovation, the apartment unsettles the out-of-town family members with its creaks and groans. Particularly Erik (Jenkins, The Shape of Water, Kajillionaire), the somewhat timid patriarch who feels ill at ease away from the suburbs of Scranton, Pennsylvania, and in a city whose constant noise and activity never stops. But everyone tries to make the best of the situation. As the evening progresses, the family is forced to face up to generational differences and life in a new age.
