Armed with a camera, Sammy starts to make his own films at home, much to the delight of his supportive mother. But life is not so easy. Family tensions, the divorce of his parents (Paul Dano and Michelle Williams), financial difficulties and the anti-Semitism of those around him put obstacles in his way, but the movie theater offers a safe haven.
Spielberg has co-written the script, which he rarely does.
“The Fabelmans” will be released in cinemas on November 24.
