In the picturesque suburbs, a devout woman’s carefully constructed world is challenged by her daughter’s unexpected announcement. Kathleen Turner stars as Eileen Cleary, a mother whose life revolves around her faith and her picture-perfect family, which includes her husband Richard Chamberlain and adult children. Her orderly existence is upended when her daughter, played by Emily Deschanel, returns home to introduce her new fiancée, a woman named Angela. This heartfelt drama, directed by Anne Renton, explores the collision of deeply held beliefs, unconditional love, and societal expectations. As Eileen grapples with her daughter’s happiness against the tenets of her religion, she embarks on a poignant and often humorous journey of self-discovery, forcing her to question what it truly means to be a family. With a strong supporting cast including Jason Ritter and Elizabeth Peña, the film navigates the complex emotional landscape with grace, presenting a timely story about acceptance, identity, and the imperfect bonds that hold us together.
