"Life waits for no family."

After her ailing mother wanders off during a blizzard, Bridget (Hilary Swank) returns to her childhood home in Chicago, accompanied by her rebellious daughter. Forced to referee between her father's stubborn insistence that his wife remains at home and her equally determined brother's efforts to place her in a "memory care" facility, Bridget struggles to make sense of a lifetime of family conflict. With her mother's decline becoming increasingly obvious, long-simmering resentments bubble to the surface.

Plot summary from IMDb: Bridget returns home at her brother's urging to deal with her ailing mother and her father's reluctance to let go of their life together.
