In 1950s South Philadelphia, eighteen-year-old Frank leaves his family home after his father, an abusive alcoholic, finally goes too far.
He leaves with the hope of finding something different. Something safer. A life that doesn't feel so heavy all the time. He goes to stay with his older brother, Thomas, and Thomas's fiancée, Alice, thinking he's finally gotten out. For a little while, it feels that way. But it doesn't last. The same tension starts to creep in. The same kind of chaos begins to unfold around him. And before long, Frank realizes he didn't escape it the way he thought he did. He's right back in it. Only now, there's something else he can't ignore, something in himself that feels a little too close to what he tried to leave behind. The Way He Left Us follows the fragile dynamics of a family trapped within the cycle of abuse and addiction.Also in
