Rental Family

A quietly moving and deeply human story, The Bioscope is proud to present Rental Family.

Subtle, intimate, and thought-provoking, this is a film that gently asks what it really means to belong.

Set in modern-day Tokyo, this award-winning comedy-drama film follows an American actor who struggles to find purpose until he lands an unusual gig: working for a Japanese ‘rental family’ agency, playing stand-in roles for strangers. As he immerses himself in his client’s worlds, he rediscovers purpose, belonging, and the beauty of human connection.
