Parenting is a serious challenge.

Story: Ben Marcus, a reality-TV editor, finds himself trapped in a mid-life crisis and is struggling to connect with his family. He believes that the key to his happiness lies in pursuing his lifelong dream of becoming a comedian. Despite his efforts, his stand-up routines don’t get the attention he hopes for on YouTube. Everything changes when his son shares a video of Ben failing at a DIY project, which unexpectedly goes viral, much to his daughter’s embarrassment, and turns him into the internet sensation known as Selfie Dad. Although he achieves incredible success and recognition, Ben soon realizes that true contentment cannot be found in fame.
