View all categoriesOur take
Kym returns from treatment for her sister Rachel's wedding, and the camera stays in the middle of loud family fights. Guests drink and smoke through the rehearsal and reception, while the siblings keep circling a younger brother who died years earlier. Language is harsh and constant in arguments. We land at 16 and up because addiction, grief, and blame stay front and center for the whole weekend
Uplifting themes
Forgiveness and showing up for family are tested but not dismissed. The wedding still matters even when old wounds reopen Kym is messy yet trying to stay sober for the weekend. Rachel and their parents are loving and flawed in equal measure
Story (may spoil tone)
A young woman who has been in and out from rehab for the past 10 years returns home for the weekend for her sister's wedding.

Talk after watching
- Kym wants to celebrate but keeps triggering the family. When does supporting someone in recovery become judging them?
- The film rarely steps away from the argument. How does that style change the way you feel about each character?
