When you've spent your life trying to escape one person's influence, what do you do when you realize you've become exactly like them?
Years after fleeing her hometown and her father's attempts to control her life, Madeline returns for his funeral. Being surrounded by reminders of the childhood she fought to leave behind makes her uncomfortable, but under the terms of her father's will, she must work to be completely free of the house, her family, and her past.
Madeline begrudgingly teams up with her sister and brother to clear out three generations' worth of mementos. As confrontations with her siblings arise and painful memories unfold, Madeline realizes just how much she has become like her father. A surprising discovery hidden in a shoebox forces Madeline to confront the true cost of her escape. Faced with heartbreaking decisions, she must rebuild her broken family on a stronger foundation.
