After losing his job as a paralegal, Sam Stein suffers a panic attack and stumbles into a job babysitting his psychiatrist's three granddaughters. The girls' mother, Dianne, is an actor whose once-promising career has stalled; she's in a difficult marriage to David, a rock bassist. When David goes abroad on tour, Dianne and Sam discover an easy rapport - as well as a shared history of mental illness. Sam joins Dianne's family to babysit for the summer on Martha's Vineyard, and he ends up in a house with the woman he pines for, her husband, the three kids, and all four grandparents - including his psychiatrist.
Filmmaker Matthew Shear makes what Variety terms “an auspicious beginning” with his feature debut, Fantasy Life, a New York comedy inspired by his years working as a “manny” for Manhattan families and his mental health struggles. The fantastic cast adds depth to this lightly comic drama.
