‘I Don’t Understand You’ Directors On The Real-Life Inspiration for Their Horror-Comedy [Exclusive]

In their new film, I Don’t Understand You, writer/directors David Craig Joseph and Brian Crano (who are also married) tackled one of the hardest moments in their lives: when they discovered they were the victims of an adoption scam. But instead of taking that sorrow and channeling it into a drama, they crafted a darkly hilarious comedy of errors about a gay couple on the vacation of a lifetime in Italy.

In the new film:

Dom (Nick Kroll) and Cole (Andrew Rannells), a couple on the verge of adopting a baby, embark on an Italian vacation—the perfect opportunity to reconnect before the new addition arrives. Everything is picture-perfect, the epitome of a European babymoon, when things begin to spiral out of control. Lost on the way to dinner, their car gets stuck in a ditch, leaving them stranded in rural nowhere during a torrential downpour. These two Americans, who are used to being catered to, are now in a foreign land with no cell service, zero comprehension of the Italian language, and, as fear takes over, escalating turmoil that could explode at any moment.

Get a taste for that simmering tension in our exclusive clip from the film:
