A Real Pain OTT Release: The Polish-American comedy-drama A Real Pain, directed by Jesse Eisenberg and starring Eisenberg alongside Kieran Culkin, is will be available for streaming on JioHotstar on the 3rd of April, 2025.

Plot

A Real Pain follows the emotional and often humorous journey of two cousins, David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin). They

who reunite for a deeply personal trip to Poland. Their journey is meant to honor their late grandmother, a Holocaust survivor. They mean to do this by exploring the places that shaped her life and survival.

However, as they embark on this historical and sentimental pilgrimage, they quickly realize that their differences make them an unlikely pair to travel together.

David, more reserved and introspective, approaches the trip with a sense of solemnity. He is eager to connect with his roots and understand the weight of his family’s past. Benji, on the other hand, is the more free-spirited and unpredictable of the two. Often he uses humor as a coping mechanism to navigate heavy emotions.

While David seeks clarity and closure, Benji’s irreverent attitude frequently causes friction between them. This leads to both heartfelt and comedic moments.

As they traverse through Poland—visiting sites of historical significance, meeting locals, and uncovering long-buried family stories—they confront their shared ancestry, unresolved tensions, and emotional baggage. Their clashing personalities create tension, but their bond as family ultimately keeps them tethered together.
