Serious People [Blu-ray]

Serious People Blu-ray presents a sharp, offbeat comedy about ambition, identity and the absurd pressures of trying to balance creative success with personal responsibility.

When an expectant father and successful music video director is offered the opportunity of a lifetime, he makes an increasingly reckless decision to outsource his life by hiring a doppelgänger to stand in for him. What begins as a desperate attempt to manage competing demands quickly spirals into a surreal and satirical examination of ego, replaceability and the performance of modern adulthood.

Directed by Pasqual Gutierrez and Ben Mullinkosson, the film blends deadpan humour with a distinctly contemporary anxiety, using its playful premise to explore work, parenthood and the strange elasticity of identity.
