September is hard to explain. It's written and directed by Woody Allen. There's only a tiny scrap of humor hidden in this one. It's very much like a later Bergman film. It takes place in one house and it unfolds through dialog like a play. There's no obvious build, but there is a touch of tension with the characters that is then released in the climax, but it's a long, not-so-interesting journey to get there.
Honestly, I liked September. I don't suggest watching it unless you're a true believer in Woody Allen or Bergman. But I thought it was a well written, well acted drama. I'd also like to note that the sound design was superb.
