True East

Is it ever too late to run away from home?
Mackie Kinsella, recently widowed, isn't sure as she boards a non-stop flight from Los Angeles to Boston. She is fleeing the land of silicone and sunshine and returning to Shoreham, a small seacoast town that remains defiant to the times and tides. She is also leaving behind her two grown daughters, Emma and Eileen. They have grown accustomed to her erratic behavior. Her childhood home, a legacy from a mother she loved but never understood sits vacant and foreboding. She hasn't set foot in it for years and it is in stark contrast to her house in Citrus Valley, but it is where she will stay. While reuniting with her eccentric Auntie, an octogenarian, who converses daily with her dead husband, Buddy, Mackie sets off a chain reaction she never could have predicted. There is a saying that bad things come in threes. Richard's death...Boo's apparent decline...what could possibly come next? There are long buried secrets from a trinity of liars, a chance encounter with Sully, a local photographer, and unexpected revelations from her daughters. She is a woman uncovering her past while pondering her future. There are many kinds of journeys and sometimes it takes nothing more than going home to find out where you've been.
