When You Finish Saving The World - Q&A with Jesse Eisenberg

Writer / Director Jesse Eisenberg talks about his feature film "When You Finish Saving The World" at a special member screening at IFC Center on January 17, 2023. Evelyn (Julianne Moore) has devoted herself to helping people in hard times, but she struggles to connect with her son Ziggy (Finn Wolfhard), an aspiring internet star oblivious to the problems of the world. As Evelyn attempts to become a parent figure to an unassuming teenager she meets at her shelter, and Ziggy fumbles through his pursuit of a brilliant and politically conscious young woman at his high school, this emotional comedy reveals a funny and sharply perceptive portrait of a mother and son who may seem at odds but who are more alike than either would care to admit WHEN YOU FINISH SAVING THE WORLD opens in theaters on Friday, January 20.
