HUMAN THEORIES Premieres at
Tribeca Film Festival!
After being on Esquire's List of The 45 Most Anticipated Movies on 2026 (alongside Wuthering Heights and The Devil Wears Prada 2) , HUMAN THEORIES by Jess Zeidman had its world premiere at Tribeca Film Festival! We had four sold-out screenings and had such a blast! I play a quirky Bushwick hipster desperate to get laid. An exploration of human connection in New York City, HUMAN THEORIES is an experimental indie feature with a massive cast of New York City's most beloved indie actors and comedians.
