Downhill

Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Will Ferrell star in a black comedy from the Academy Award winning writers of The Descendants and the creator of award winning HBO series Succession. Based on Ruben Ostlund’s acclaimed 2014 comedy film Force Majeure, Billie (Louis-Dreyfus) and Pete (Ferrell) take their sons on a luxury skiing getaway in Europe. Already dealing with the demands of travelling as a family, an unexpected alpine event causes Pete to leave his family in harm’s way. While nobody is hurt, Pete’s actions create an uncomfortable schism that gradually turns paradise into anything but. Co-starring a scene-stealing Miranda Otto, Zach Woods and Kristofer Hivju, DOWNHILL is a hilarious takedown of parental responsibility, masculinity and human nature.
