Synopsis: In the latest comedy from Joe Swanberg, a young married couple (Jake Johnson and Rosemarie DeWitt) is still trying to adjust to life as parents three years after the birth of their son. While house-sitting for some friends, she drops the kid off with her mother before a night on the town while he invites a bunch of friends over, leading both into a night of temptations that include drinking, pot, another woman and something very strange in the yard.
What the Critics Are Saying:
“Joe Swanberg’s starriest picture is a lovely slice of everything and nothing disguised as a murder mystery.”
-Ben Kenigsberg, Variety
“Marriage is hard, parenting is impossible, and life will always invite mystery. Swanberg and Johnson know this first hand and it’s that knowledge that empowers Digging for Fire.”
-Michael Roffman, Consequence of Sound
