What Is ‘The Parenting‘ About?

They plan what should be a perfect weekend getaway in the countryside, bringing together Rohan’s parents, Sharon (Edie Falco) and Frank (Brian Cox), and Josh’s parents, Liddy (Lisa Kudrow) and Cliff (Dean Norris).
However, their peaceful retreat takes a bizarre turn when they discover that their rental home—managed by the eccentric Brenda (Parker Posey)—harbors a dark secret.
A 400-year-old poltergeist lurks within its walls, and when one of the parents falls victim to full-on possession, the chaos truly begins.
Now, it’s up to Rohan, Josh, and their meddlesome best friend Sara (Vivian Bang) to unite their feuding families and banish the supernatural entity once and for all.
