Inspired by Anton Chekhov's 'The Seagull' and set in rural New England in the 1980s, the film centers around a fading movie star who brings her paramour to her lakeside estate to visit her ailing brother and fledgling artist son. While the eccentric family and their caretakers gather to celebrate Memorial Day, reckless desire wreaks havoc and a disastrous turn of events leads the family from dysfunction to heartbreak. In Chekhovian fashion, comedy and tragedy collide for a profound look at the volatile and fragile nature of love.
