Terwijl Jefferson Airplane op de radio klinkt, valt het leven van de Joodse professor Larry Gopnik in 1967 uit elkaar. Zijn vrouw wil van hem scheiden, zijn dochter steelt geld van hem voor een neuscorrectie en zijn zoon houdt zich bezig met rock-'n-roll en blowt liever met z'n vrienden dan dat hij zich op z'n Bar Mitswa voorbereidt. Daarnaast zit hij opgescheept met zijn sociaal gehandicapte broer die weigert het huis te verlaten en wordt zijn hoofd ook nog eens op hol gebracht door de beeldschone, naakt zonnebadende buurvrouw.
Nee, helaas is A Serious Man nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
