Romantically challenged New York indie-rocker, Josh (Mark Duplass) can't figure out why his career and love life seem to be spinning out-of-control. Hoping some time on the road will clear things up, he plans a trip to visit his father with a very unusual gift. But the journey home takes on some unexpected emotional baggage when his commitment-obsessed girlfriend, Emily (Kathryn Aselton), and slacker brother, Rhett (Rhett Wilkins), decide to come along.
With a documentary-home video style filming, you feel as if you are a fly on the wall or wearing an invisibility cloak and you are allowed to snoop in on three people struggling to evolve for the better in a world that is beyond their own. Extremely relatable characters, especially in their interaction with one another and with themselves individually. They remind of people I know, which made the movie more enjoyable. The soundtrack was very reminiscent of my college years!
