Ceremony is the directorial debut feature for Max Winkler and it is a pretty impressive comedic debut, featuring a wonderful lead performance by Michael Angarano.
The film follows Sam, Angarano, and his “best friend” Marshall as they head out of the city to the country to a beachside vacation spot seemingly for the weekend. Sam motivations slowly reveal to not be entirely what Marshall thinks as Sam to shoves them into a fancy affair going on at a local mansion. Sam quickly recognizes a woman, Zoe, and their past seems to be quite the complicated one. Taking things even further, Zoe, is about to be wed to her documentarian fiancée in just three days. As Sam tries and find his place with Zoe the two friends embark on an odd a bizarre adventure among an eccentric group of individuals.
