Find your family.

A twenty-something, fast-talking salesman's latest deal collapses on the day he learns that his father has suddenly died. Against his wishes, he is called home, where he must put his father's estate in order and reconnect with his estranged family. In the course of fulfilling his father's last wishes, he uncovers a startling secret that turns his entire world upside down: He has a 30-year-old sister whom he never knew about. As their relationship develops, he is forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about this family, and re-examine his own life choices in the process. Take tissues.
