It makes us lean in and rewards our attention through a proliferation of subtle details.

— Adam Nayman, The Ringer

In her first film, playwright Annie Baker, winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize, proves that a talent for writing theatrical stories can be successfully translated to the big screen. The dialogues in Janet Planet immerse the viewer in the characters’ inner world and reflect the reality around them, while every look and every gesture is filled with dramatic energy.
