Bad Shabbos (HKJFF2025)

Kyra Sedgwick and Method Man lead a stellar ensemble in this darkly hilarious comedy set on the Upper West Side, the quintessential progressive New York Jewish neighborhood. When David and his non-Jewish fiancée introduce their families over a Friday night meal, what’s meant to be a warm family shabbos gathering spirals into total chaos after a sudden mishap. Bad Shabbos turns one family’s sacred ritual into a wildly funny night of cover-ups, confusion, and unexpected connection. The film debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival.
