Shelly (Daphne Zuniga) visits her parents after being away for years. They live in paradise on a lake. With her is her son (Jack Griffo) and his girlfriend (Alyssa Elle Steinacker) neither of which know how to do "it", which wasn't the most unbelievable thing. Shelly had a brother Jamie (Grant Jordan) who died in a drowning. She and her dad (Michael Hogan) for some reason don't get along as well as they should. The entire film is a little bit of life and then a flashback of two decades or more to their life with Jamie. Mom, Dad, and sister spend all their time lamenting his death after 25 years to sad piano music background. Finally...PLOT SPOILER they come to terms with his death.
The film was fairly well done and acted, except I failed to see the point. Life happens. Move on. Am I to feel abnormal now that I don't think of dead loved ones every minute of every day? If you feel like lamenting, this is your film.
No swearing, sex, or nudity.
