About this movie

Cami Bowden really has her life together. She has finally picked up the pieces from her divorce with her ex-husband, Craig, 10 years earlier, and established a successful career as a children's book writer. She bought and renovated her dream home in a small town north of her former home city and is busy raising her daughter, Aster, a first-year university student. But when Craig dies suddenly of a heart attack, the perfect life Cami has created begins to unravel. At Craig's funeral, Cami and Aster must spend time with Rachel, Craig's second, much younger wife, who he left Cami for, and Talulah, Craig's second child, who is pointedly avoiding engaging in the grieving process. Rachel, having spent much of her adult life as a stay-at-home wife, reveals to Cami that Craig has been hiding a multitude of debt and that their house will be repossessed––Rachel and Talulah will soon be left without a roof over their heads or a penny to their names while they hope for Craig's life insurance policy to pay out. Moved by Rachel's plight, Cami reluctantly offers to let the pair temporarily live with her and Aster. Together under one roof, the women Craig has left behind process their grief and anger over his death and search for meaning and direction in their lives. All the while, old secrets and shifting allegiances threaten to bring the tenuous balance of the household crashing down around them.
