A Serious Man

Overview

In the quiet suburbs of 1960s Minnesota, Larry Gopnik’s meticulously ordered universe begins to unravel. A professor grappling with a dissolving marriage, a sibling’s unsettling presence, and a mounting tide of inexplicable misfortune, Larry seeks wisdom and solace. He turns to the elders of his community, hoping for clarity in the face of life’s bewildering, often absurd, challenges, only to find himself adrift in a sea of conflicting advice and existential questions that echo with a profound, cosmic indifference.
