The Story

Charlie, 20, a student returns to the family farm in Virginia to help his ailing mother. They have a different view of life: Charlie studies finance while Laura runs a chicken farm. After a long absence, Solange, Laura’s mother, Charlie’s grandmother, also arrives at the farm… She’s French, feminist and eccentric. Solange left America while her daughter was still a child and they never saw each other again. Will these three women, whom nothing seems to bring together, manage to live together?
