Rental Family

MON , Jan 12, 7PM

2025 | Drama/ Comedy | Starring Brendan Fraiser | 1h 43m | PG-13

Set in modern-day Tokyo, “Rental Family” follows an American actor — portrayed by Brendan Fraser — struggling to find purpose until he lands an unusual gig: working for a Japanese “rental family” agency, playing stand-in roles for strangers. As he immerses himself in his clients’ worlds, he begins to form genuine bonds that blur the lines between performance and reality. Confronting the moral complexities of his work, he rediscovers purpose, belonging, and the quiet beauty of human connection.

This is a beautiful and contemplative film, with lovely messaging and a couple of sly twists.” – Richard Roeper, RogerEbert.com

“It’s a deceptively fiddly role, an actor playing an actor, who winds up acting out various roles for real people. But it’s a part made for Fraser and his lovely big, sad eyes.” India Block, London Evening Standard

“Rental Family” is practically poetic… It gets to the root of human emotions and how they’re affected by the world around us and the decisions made by others. It’s a heartwarming film that asks thoughtful questions, and I promise you won’t be disappointed by its answers.” Mae Abdulbaki, Screen Rant
