An exhibition held in memory of photographer Isabelle Reed three years after her death brings the family’s eldest son Jonah back home, forcing him to spend his days with his father Gene, whom he avoids, and his brother Conrad whom he hasn’t seen in years. Among flashbacks of Isabelle’s life, we witness the Reed family as they try to cope with their grief and strive to mend their relationships with one another. The film was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
