OTHER

Storyline: Four cousins are back at the family homestead to pack up their grandmother's house in Tidewater Virginia. Over a weekend of board games and in-jokes, the cousins crack each other up, spill secrets, and face some difficult truths about the choices their parents made for them. A moving new comedy from James Ijames (Fat Ham, Good Bone) that looks at the layers of legacy within a family and asks whether preservation means holding on or learning to let in something new.
