A mysterious death in the South of France leads to a comedy of errors, as a Newfoundland family comes to terms with the patriarchy that’s kept a trove of family secrets under wraps for decades. From Manhattan to Santa Fe, from San Diego and Montreal, a colorful group of mourners journey to St. John’s, Newfoundland, unaware of their assigned roles to be played out in the Marquis family drama.
