A family drama that balances dark secrets—sexual abuse, alcoholism, dysfunction—with comedic moments and an ultimately redemptive arc about three generations learning to reconnect.

Rebellious, uncontrollable teenager, Rachel is hauled off by her dysfunctional mother to spend the summer with her estranged grandmother, Georgia. Her journey will lead all three women to revelations of buried family secrets and an understanding that - regardless what happens - the ties that bind can never be broken.
