Andrea “Drea” Stoney, a down-on-her-luck poet, finds herself at her grandmother’s repass, along with her seditty larger-than-life family. But Drea is sticking out like a sore thumb; she’s introspective, Queer, artistic, and proudly Deaf, albeit surrounded by her distant family members who don’t care to know ASL. So Drea resorts to finding solace in hidden, lonely moments that she can steal in the pockets of her grandmother’s generational brownstone. Her visit is complicated by the arrival of her father Samuel, who’s 20 years into a 25-year prison sentence, released for the day on a furlough to say goodbye to his late mother. The two strangers, bound by blood and their love for the deceased, are forced to reconcile with each other before his inevitable return to prison.
