Just as she is recovering from a breakdown, Anna’s world is further rocked when her younger sister gets engaged.
After the tragic loss of their mother, sisters Anna and Claire face divergent paths. Claire emerges resilient, embracing love with Johnny, while Anna grapples with diagnosed mental health challenges and alcohol dependency, unable to fathom her sister’s swift recovery.
Anna teams up with Art—Johnny’s self-absorbed, binge-drinking best man and roommate—to sabotage the wedding. As maid of honor and best man, their chaotic schemes unravel heartfelt truths…
“If you are looking for something that can make you laugh, cry, and want to call your sister the moment you get out of the theater (or maybe you should just bring her with you!) this is the film for you. Jump on the emotional rollercoaster that is ‘The Best People’. You won’t regret it.” – TCFF
“’The Best People features some incredible funny scenes. The screenplay hits the right balance of bawdy comedy and heartfelt emotion. Anna Evelyn shines!” – The HD Room
“When performance and writing and direction really gel, as they do a number of times throughout, The Best People can be quite sweet and resonant and perceptive, its relationship dynamics and observations about family and marriage surprisingly keen and insightful.” – Film Threat
