Directed by Courtney Marsh, it captures the raw tension that comes with loss, as the three siblings, Cynthia, Bryce, and Miles, grapple with their complex emotions during their annual gathering. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of silence to speak volumes, particularly as Cynthia's financial struggles add weight to the already strained family ties. The atmosphere is thick with nostalgia and unspoken resentment, making the brunch scenes both intimate and fraught. The performances are compelling—particularly the nuance in Cynthia's character, who embodies the struggle of holding on while everything feels lost.
