After Class (originally titled Safe Spaces) is a 2019 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Daniel Schechter and starring Justin Long, Kate Berlant, Lynn Cohen, Michael Godere, Fran Drescher and Richard Schiff.
A bittersweet combination of big-hearted family drama and intense examination of diversity and inclusion, this comedy-drama is understated but nonetheless beguiling. On one hand, After Class asks big questions about privilege, empathy, and truth. But on the other, it's all about the day-to-day dynamic of family life.

Dec 6, 2019 · Overview. An NYC Professor spends the week reconnecting with his family while defending his reputation over controversial behavior at his college. Meanwhile, his family is determined to make an around-the-clock effort to support their matriarch when she’s admitted to New York’s Presbyterian Hospital and is expected to die within a few days.
So this dynamic is the setup for comedy; a series of blunders. I can see it compared to Woody Allen, mainly in Josh's hasty dialogue and frantic, victim mentality. But it's a little different, probably more like Amy Schumer - this is a little more of satire with dark, awkward, and deadpan humor.
