Four generations who haven't seen each other in years are brought together by the chance to face some unpleasant truths in this drama. It's a journey that takes them out on the road to a world full of surprises – some comic, some dramatic, and all of them personal. Jason's wife left him to care for their six-year-old son Zach while she paints somewhere abroad, and his ailing grandfather Henry, a former archaeologist who is investigating alternative rituals for his impending funeral being close to death. So when Jason's estranged father and Henry's son, Turner, whose doubtful past includes varies from the musical to the criminal, pays the family an unexpected visit, nothing is "simple" or "normal" in Jason's life anymore. A little bit ponderous saga of fathers and sons from first-time writer/director Jordan Roberts. |
