Review
This tense family drama follows three estranged sisters reuniting in a cramped New York City apartment as their father receives hospice care during his final days. The story explores sibling rivalries, unresolved grievances, and the raw process of grief through sharp, intimate dialogue and powerhouse performances from Carrie Coon, Natasha Lyonne, and Elizabeth Olsen. No audience-visible social-justice, identity, or activist elements appear in the narrative, marketing, or reception.
