When the patriarch of the Altman family passes away, his four children are forced to bring their complicated family under one roof to fulfill their father's last wish: to spend a week sitting "shiva," a Jewish tradition involving a period of mourning. This reunion becomes an emotional rollercoaster filled with resentments, secrets, and old rivalries. Judd, the eldest son, tries to cope with his recent divorce and the shocking revelation that his wife has been unfaithful with his boss. Wendy, the overprotective sister, struggles to balance her personal and professional life while trying to care for her brothers. Paul, the younger brother caught in a monotonous marriage, and Phil, the wild brother who seems to take nothing seriously, each add their own dose of chaos to this already complicated family mix.
As the week progresses, tensions and laughter arise in equal measure, and each of them must confront not only the ghosts of their childhood but also their life choices. Against the backdrop of their family home filled with memories, the Altmans discover that, while they may not fully understand one another, family is what truly matters. Love, betrayal, and redemption intertwine in this poignant story about the power of family and the importance of leaving the past behind in order to move forward.
