Michael Lerner, Lesley Ann Warren and Jack Klugman star in this manic comedy about a disastrously dysfunctional Passover Seder. At the head of the ritual table is Ira Stuckman (Lerner), the family patriarch who owns a Christmas ornament business and brags about running “the world’s fastest Seder.” Perfectionist mom Peggy (Warren) has pitched an elaborate biblical-style tent in the backyard to entice their newly religious son Ethan (Max Greenfield) to join the family for Passover. The rest of the combative bunch includes two daughters—one, a sex surrogate (Shiri Appleby), the other, a lesbian (Meredith Scott Lynn) with an ax to grind—plus a sexpot cousin (Mili Avital); rebellious stoner son Zeke (Ben Feldman); youngest son Lionel (Adam Lamberg); grandpa Stuckman (Klugman); and a few other nutty characters. When Mom flirts with a mysterious, one-eyed Israeli dinner guest (Mark Ivanir), Dad has unknowingly ingested a psychedelic drug, turning him into a modern-day Moses intent on leading this combative family to the land of forgiveness. By the end credits, the histrionics have given way to a surprisingly sentimental finale that will leave audiences with a smile. WHEN DO WE EAT? was shot in 30 days in California on a shoestring budget, and is a collaborative effort between first-time director Salvador Litvak and his wife Nina who co-wrote the script. “Three things I would like audiences to take with them once they have seen this film,” says director Litvak, “Families can heal, miracles happen if you make them happen, and finally, there’s a place for spirituality in everyone’s life.” The ornate Passover tent, the central set of the film, was designed by Emmy winner Bernt Capra, based on illustrations from a Passover Haggadah the director had as a child. Stuffed with self-deprecating humor, WHEN DO WE EAT? Is a sit-com-style movie with something to amuse and offend just about everyone.
