Serious Man, A

Poważny człowiek · dir. Ethan Coen, Joel Coen
USA, United Kingdom, France 2009, 105’

Trailer

Joel and Ethan Coen make their most personal, most intensely Jewish film, which turns out to be one of their most universal as well. The ‘serious man’ in question is Larry Gopnik, a university professor who’s up for tenure in physics. Married with two children and the standard suburban house, he's always tried to live up to expectations, tried to be the best person he can, so he’s totally unprepared when every aspect of his life begins to collapse in a slow-motion riot.
