When David and his fiancée Meg gather for his family's traditional Shabbat dinner on New York's Upper West Side, things spiral quickly when an accidental death (or...murder?) derails the evening entirely. With Meg's devoutly Catholic parents due any moment to meet David's very Jewish family, soon Shabbat becomes a comedy of biblical proportions.
