Review:
Jocelyn DeBoer and Dawn Luebbe write, direct, and star in this hilariously deadpan hellscape of competitive suburbia. A boldly stylised absurdist chain of events unfurl with increasing fervour after one soccer mom gifts another her infant daughter, just to be polite.
Jocelyn DeBoer and Dawn Luebbe are the award-winning writing and directing team behind the 2019 Sundance phenomenon GREENER GRASS. Based on their breakout short film by the same name, the film is the duo’s debut feature. Both Upright Citizens Brigade alumni, they met while performing sketch comedy in New York.
