Synopsis

Thirtysomething Angie is an aspiring photographer with a day job in a wine tasting room where she throws around a lot of attitude. Forced to deal with her mother's rapidly advancing Alzheimer's while juggling deadlines for a possible career-making photo exhibition and a parade of pretentious oenophiles, Angie responds with an impatient brew of intolerance and irritation. Her short fuse grows even shorter when Angie is obliged to move in with mom until she and her brother Todd can find a facility for her with an appropriate level of care. Trying to keep an eye on mom, Angie turns to her girlfriend Caroline for support and a shoulder to cry on. But Caroline's sympathies ultimately wear thin, compelling Angie to come to terms with her own self-interest, some unexpected family secrets and the toughest decision of her life.
