Directed by Joe Swanberg • 2007 • United States
Starring Greta Gerwig, Kent Osborne, Andrew Bujalski

Over the course of one hot postgraduate summer, Hannah (Greta Gerwig) falls precariously in and out of love. A breaker of hearts and chronically dissatisfied, she finds herself drifting away from her newly unemployed boyfriend (Mark Duplass) and drawn to two of her coworkers, Matt (Kent Osborne) and Paul (Andrew Bujalski). Conceived without a traditional script, this alternately heartbreaking and hilarious triumph of improvisational acting was born from collaboration between director Joe Swanberg and his cast, which includes some of the leading independent filmmakers of their generation.
