"Everything is Illuminated" tells the story of a young American
Jewish man's quest to find the woman who saved his grandfather--in
a small Ukrainian town that was wiped off the map by the Nazi invasion.
The journey begins as a comic nightmare--with an eccentric trio of
paid "expert" guides sorely lacking in expertise: a cranky
grandfather who insists on bringing his unruly seeing-eye dog to help
him drive, and his over-enthusiastic grandson, whose fractured command
of English, passion for retro American pop culture, and inability
to shut up threaten to make the worst of every situation. But what
starts out as the tour from hell turns into a surprisingly meaningful
journey--with an unexpected and powerful series of revelations that
will indelibly change all of their lives.

40-year-old Andy Stitzer (Steve Carrell) has done quite a few things
in his life. He's got a cushy job stamping invoices at an electronics

and comic books, good friends, a nice attitude. But there's just
one little thing he hasn't quite gotten around to doing yet--something
most people have done by his age. Done a lot. Andy's never, ever,
ever had sex--not even by accident. So is that such a big deal?
Well, for Andy's buds at the store, it sure is. Although they think
he's a bit of an oddball, there's certainly a planetful of stranger
(and homelier) guys who've at least had one go at having a go. They
consider it their duty to help Andy out of his dire situation and
go to great lengths to help him. But nothing proves effective enough
to lure their friend out of lifelong chastity until he meets Trish
(Catherine Keener), a 40-year-old mother of three. Andy's friends
are psyched by the possibility that "it" may finally happen...until
they hear that Andy and Trish have begun their relationship based
on a mutual no-sex policy.
