An Intergenerational Comedy by Lauren Yee

Directed by Cat Ramirez

Take a seat for a dual road trip like no other in Lauren Yee’s Young Americans. Newly engaged immigrants Jenny and Joe depart on a cross-country road trip to their new home in Portland, as they learn to connect as a couple. 20 years later, Joe and their adopted daughter, Lucy, set out for a similar adventure to take Lucy to college. As Jenny and Joe traverse the strange territory of their new country, and Lucy pieces together their bittersweet family history, this beautiful comedy explores what home and belonging truly mean—and the lengths we go for the people we love.
