The Humbling is a drama comedy film that follows the story of Simon Axler, a famous aging actor who struggles to cope with his own decline, both personal and professional. After a disastrous performance, Simon is institutionalized and later begins an affair with a much younger woman named Pegeen, who is the daughter of an old friend. As their relationship deepens, Simon's world begins to fall apart as he struggles to keep pace with Pegeen's carefree and sexually charged lifestyle.
