Synopsis

When Agnes (Molly Parker) returns home to help care for her ailing mother (Marguerite McNeil), she discovers she’s far from welcome. Her older sister, Theresa (Rebecca Jenkins), despises her for leaving them and is battling her own demons. What’s more, Agnes’s unambitious sibling Louise (Stacy Smith) doesn’t know how to relate to her. Agnes must also learn how to bid her dying mother goodbye.
