Fabelmans, The

Steven Spielberg returns with a semi-autobiographical love letter to movie magic! Starring Michelle Williams, Seth Rogen, Paul Dano and Gabriel LaBelle, THE FABELMANS is a coming-of-age story and a testament to the power of filmmaking.

Spielberg’s richly detailed drama is inspired by the director’s own childhood. Aspiring teenage filmmaker Sammy Fabelman (Gabriel LaBelle) is urged to pursue his dreams by his beloved mother Mitzi (Michelle Williams), despite the scepticism of his computer scientist father Burt (Paul Dano). Using his filmmaking to establish stability as the family is continually displaced by his father’s career, Sammy’s visits to the cinema and the encouragement of his friends help craft a master storyteller.

Part personal portrait, part ode to the magic of the cinema, THE FABELMANS was the People’s Choice Award winner at Toronto International Film Festival.
