A young woman named Geraldine lives a successful but lonely life as a wildlife photographer residing in Chicago, but this was not always the case. She moved as far North as she could to escape her mother, who has mental illness, and struggles with guilt because she left her brother, who is her best friend, too. When she goes home to visit for his wedding, she is met with a few surprises. A lot has changed but not for the good.
