A heartwarming comedy with a touch of drama about the power of human connections. Featuring another wonderful performance by Brendan Fraser (The Whale).
Set in contemporary Tokyo, Rental Family follows an American actor (Brendan Fraser) who struggles to find meaning in his life until he lands a unique job: working for a Japanese “rental family” agency, where he plays hired roles for strangers. As he delves deeper into the worlds of his clients, he begins to form real bonds that blur the lines between acting and reality. Confronted with the moral complexities of his work, he rediscovers his purpose, connectedness and the hidden beauty of human connections.
There are no new dates planned (yet) for Rental Family.
