Joey is a successful divorce lawyer who is used to things going his way. When he suddenly decides he needs a bar mitzvah, he doesn’t expect to have to wait, or take classes. But when he meets Michael, an acerbic rabbi with to-do lists of her own, what began as a simple bureaucratic checkbox becomes a deep immersion in the meaning behind rituals.
A sharp-tongued comedy about growing up at any age.
