Summary
Four semi-estranged siblings who reunite for their father’s wake, only to clash with his overbearing side of the family in a tug-of-war over how to say goodbye. As oblivious guests and a death-phobic funeral director add to the chaos, they fumble into an absurd new reality – one that, maybe, just maybe, could bring them closer together.
