Produktbeschreibung

Shortly after they married, Nancy and Frank settled into suburbia with their two children, Ariana and Teddy. They planned a happy, simple life and believed they could conquer any challenge that came their way. Now, between the strain of Frank's father slipping into dementia and Nancy experiencing a mid-life career change, they discover that they've lost themselves inside their marriage. Frank looks for himself at the bottom of a bottle and Nancy fights a battle with her body, while their children struggle with identity crises of their own. Ariana is quickly ascending to the ranks of high school popularity until a drunken night leaves her wrestling with her conscience. Teddy, who has rejected the person his father molded him to be, seeks an escape from the demands of adulthood and becomes a stoner lost in his haze. As each family member reels from their trauma, they slowly begin to recognize the pain they have experienced and caused. Can they forgive and forget? Or do some people not deserve a second chance?
