Uncle Jeff killed himself, and his family has gathered to mourn. His son and his nieces grew up together, but adulthood has pulled them apart. Natalie is divorced, Jillian just left rehab, and Paul is looking for someone to blame for his father’s death. But then Uncle Robert shows up, and the secrets and lies that have been controlling the family for decades can no longer stay buried. In this intimate drama, the most shocking thing about the family might not be its darkest secret, but its capacity for redemption.
