What is nature and what is nurture? How many of your opinions do you hold because you grew up with them? How many of your opinions do you hold because someone in your life decided to challenge your opinions?
Four siblings, with four different stances of the world, are forced together because their dad has been hospitalized. They have to work together to try and ensure their father gets the care that he needs. Through this, lines are crossed. Opinions are expressed and challenged. Some try to play peacemaker, while others try to rock the boat. They test the bounds of family loyalty, how much family is willing to do for each other in hard times, and how much family is willing to do for each other when there is a clear line in the sand dividing beliefs.
