The Nest meets Vacationland in this sharply witty family drama featuring two Korean-American sisters supporting there newly widowed mother when a man claiming to be there half-brother from Seoul vies for his right to there late father's estate.

Set in northern California, sisters Eleanor and Amelia Bae-Wood are rallying around there mother Tabitha, who's just been evicted from her home. Newly single, unemployed, and broke--for reasons that she hasn't shared with her family--Amelia needs a free place to live and time to figure out what to do with the rest of her life, so moving temporarily to Arcadia, the medical retreat where Eleanor works, seems like as good an idea as any.

As usual, Eleanor has too much on her plate, including being caught up in a court battle with someone who claims to be there deceased father's first-born child and only son – a secret love child from his Korean youth—who's fighting for a piece of everything that belongs to the Bae-Wood women.

A commercial, multi-cultural, enormously entertaining retelling of Sense and Sensibility for the 21st century, containing a journey of self-discovery and agency making it feel modern and feminist, and touching on timely themes of complicated family politics, race, class, and wealth.
