A married American couple go to the San Sebastian Festival and get caught up in the magic of the event, the beauty and charm of the city and the fantasy of movies.
"Despite all the controversy surrounding Woody Allen's name, the filmmaker returns with 'Rifkin's Festival'. Again in the format of a romantic comedy, the director explores the subject that made him famous: love relationships. In the plot, actor Wallace Shawn plays Mort Rifkin, a writer and film historian who accompanies his wife Sue, a press officer played by Gina Gershon, to Spain for the San Sebastian Festival. In the plot, Sue gets involved with a film director and Mort enters into a spiral of neuroses about his marriage and himself. Wallace Shawn is impeccable in the movie, extremely charismatic. Clearly this character would have been played by Woody Allen in the past, but Shawn is much more captivating. 'Rifkin's Festival' is a typical Allen comedy and fulfills its function very well in the genre."
