Dean

Comedian Demetri Martin writes, directs and stars alongside Oscar winner Kevin Kline in this father-son tale about the unusual way some people grieve. Co-stars Gillian Jacobs (TV's Community).

Dean (Martin) is an illustrator whose unwillingness to deal with the recent death of his mother means escaping his hometown of New York for an interview with an ad agency in Los Angeles. His retired engineer dad Robert (Kline) takes a more regimented approach to grief, including putting the family home up for sale. Both father and son set out on their own paths to find a new normal as unexpected circumstances and potential new love interests threaten to thwart all plans.
