College senior Danielle must cover her tracks when she unexpectedly runs into her sugar daddy at a shiva - with her parents, ex-girlfriend and family friends also in attendance. The film takes place almost entirely in real time and at one location as Danielle explores her romantic and career prospects under the intense watch of her family, friends, and judgmental neighbors. A witty and fun comedy that delivers its purpose, "Shiva Baby" is a delightful experiment with anxiety-inducing moments, memorable characters, and a candid portrayal of Jewish culture.
