In this unique, daring and hilarious romantic comedy Jenny Slate plays Donna Stern, an aspiring New York stand-up comic who finds herself without a boyfriend and without a job in quick succession. Consoling herself in a bar one night, she hooks up with nice-guy Max (Jake Lacy) and subsequently finds herself pregnant. Deciding to go through with an abortion, the film follows Donna and Max’s blossoming relationship. This debut film from writer-director Gillian Robespierre is a refreshing and uproarious look at the reality of single life today.
The screening on Mon 1 Sep (18.15) will be introduced by Dr Nessa Johnston, lecturer at Glasgow School of Art, as part of our Contemporary Cinema Course.
