THE SEDER Trailer - "His own personal Exodus".
Openly gay Leo is bringing his boyfriend, Mitchell, home to meet his family for the first time. The Seder is a comedy that draws on the rich Jewish humor found in the neuroses and traditions of a people who always try to put family first.

Very amusing

I saw this as part of the GLBT Film Festival in Boston.

Gay Jewish Leo (Dareed Louza) decides to bring his lover Mitchell (Adam Rodness) to the Seder of his family. The film intercuts between Leo and Adam agonizing over it and the reactions of Leo's family. It all leads up to a twist that I didn't seem coming.

VERy funny and very light comedy short. It's well-made, the acting is great and the jokes are actually pretty funny. My audience was laughing quite a bit. The only debit--Louza and Rodness are obviously not gay and their declarations of loving each other never rang true. Still the short was fun and well-done.
