Grandmother Rubin has bought the family home where they all grew up. She wants her four grandchildren to come for Seder.
When they finally show up for their grandmother and for their father, they don't rise to the occasion. They fight non stop. These kids are 40 something.
They grew up in a lovely house, but none of them took care of it. The house is a wreck. The two other sons are religious fanatics; one an obsessive rabbi, and the other a guru who gives people words of wisdom.
One great-grandchild is neglected and offers his father money to spend time with him.
After witnessing her grandchildren fight, she blesses each of them. She goes upstairs to bed and by morning she has died. The guru's wife goes into labor.
The father, keeps repeating, "They are too different to get along."
No, they are too selfish to get along. They all want to do what they want to do and will never change.
All situations in this film are depicting unpleasant people being themselves. I call that a documentary.
