Physics professor Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) can't believe his life - his wife is leaving him for his best friend, his unemployed brother won't move off the couch, someone is threatening his career, his kids are a mystery and his neighbor is tormenting him by sunbathing nude. Struggling to make sense of it all, Larry consults three different rabbis and their answers lead him on a twisted journey of faith, family, delinquent behavior and mortality in the film critics rave is "seriously awesome!" Larry Gopnik's life is coming apart at the seams and someone is trying to sabotage his chances for tenure. Jewish physics professor Larry Gopnik is a serious and a very put-upon man. His daughter is stealing from him to save up for a nose job; his pot-head son, who gets stoned at his bar mitzvah, only wants him around to fix the TV aerial, and his useless brother Arthur is an unwelcome houseguest. But both Arthur and Larry get turfed out to a motel when Larry's wife, Judy, who wants a divorce, moves her lover Sy into the house, and even after Sy's death in a car crash, they are still there. With lawyer's bills mounting for his divorce, Arthur's criminal court appearances, and a land feud with a neighbor, Larry is tempted to take the bribe offered by a student to give him an illegal exam pass mark. And the rabbis he visits for advice only dole out platitudes Still God moves in mysterious -- and not always pleasant -- ways, as Larry and his family will find out.
