Michael Cera (Scott Pilgrim vs the World), Hannah Gross (Mindhunter) and Sophia Lillis (It) lead this dramedy as siblings reunited in their early, awkward stages of adulthood.
Eric returns home for a short visit and finds himself caught between reuniting with his sisters and chasing a victory with his old poker group. As the trip extends, Eric finds it increasingly difficult to avoid confrontations and revelations as his carefully constructed façade of his adulthood gives way to old childhood conflicts. While Maggie attempts to recreate the intimate world the three of them once shared, Eric and Rachel are faced with the divide between their childhood selves and the adults they are now.

Variety
Variety"A poignant work... that might be described as mumblecore Chekhov with a side order of Looney Tunes cartoon vocals."

Screen Daily
Screen Daily"The film affectingly captures the uniquely American ennui provoked by the banalities of a hometown and the lost utopia of childhood."
