Directed by Kelly O’Donnell

Will, his family’s emotional caretaker, travels to Florida to help his gay, alcoholic Dad get settled into Florida’s largest retirement mecca. Will’s younger brother and his pregnant wife join him to make plans for the inevitable as the 2.3% of Dad’s liver that actually functions, is failing epically. Without warning, Mom arrives to say goodbye. This is the first time the Robbins’ have all been in the same room together in over 15 years. The tight-lipped, acid-tongued family’s seams start to uproariously, violently rip, revealing many truths lying dormant beneath the surface.
