Logline

An incisive psychological profile that’s filled with subtle tension but never loses its delicacy and grace.

Ina is a therapist, the mother of a rebellious teenage girl, and a partner to a man who has always put his own career first. She puts everyone’s needs ahead of her own until one hot summer day, when her self-centered mother celebrates her 70th birthday, something happens that will change everything.
