In a gripping tale of two families reuniting for a wedding, Morgan and Benji's surprise invitation to Maine stirs up old wounds and hidden agendas. Twelve years after the tragic loss of sixteen-year-old Alice, Benji's sister and Morgan's best friend, the couple's decision to marry brings their fractured families together for the first time since the funeral. As guests arrive in the serene coastal town, skepticism about the marriage mingles with their own deep-seated secrets. Morgan's father, Peter, may attempt to dissuade her from going through with the wedding, while Linnie, Benji's mother, introduces a new boyfriend with a troubled past. Benji's father, Nick, is preoccupied with securing a new job before his wife, Caro—his former secretary and mistress—discovers his recent unemployment. Meanwhile, Morgan harbors delicate secrets that could jeopardize her long-desired happiness, and Benji is focused on preventing the weekend from spiraling out of control. As the event unfolds, old passions reignite, deep wounds resurface, and newly uncovered secrets threaten to disrupt the fragile peace the wedding symbolizes. The couple and their families are compelled to reevaluate their understanding of one another amidst the chaos.
