Stand-up comic Max Bernal (Bobby Cannavale) and his 11-year-old autistic son Ezra (introducing William Fitzgerald) set off on a road trip in this vivid portrait of a family figuring out how to understand one another. Having recently blown up his career and his marriage, Max is living with his father Stan (Robert De Niro) and is profoundly at odds with his soon-to-be ex-wife Jenna (Rose Byrne) about how to address their son’s needs. When Ezra is expelled from yet another school, Max makes the controversial decision to take Ezra in the middle of the night embarking on a cross-country odyssey.

Directed by Tony Goldwyn, “Ezra” also features Vera Farmiga, Whoopi Goldberg, and Rainn Wilson.
