"A touchingly true film about the agonies of navigating that slippery slope called adulthood."—Manohla Dargis, New York Times

Momma’s Man follows the dilemma of a young husband and father who stops at his parents' home during a business trip to New York and finds himself unable to leave. He moves back into his childhood bedroom, avoids his wife's phone calls, and attempts to reconnect with childhood friends—all of which raises his parents' suspicions. The parents are played by director Jacobs's real-life parents: experimental filmmaker Ken Jacobs and artist Flo Jacobs. (94 mins., 35mm)
