Taryn is a runaway girl seeking refuge with her uncle Bill and aunt Kim in Baltimore. When she arrives, however, she finds a delicate scenario: their marriage having fallen apart, Kim and Bill look for a way to break their ties without hurting their daughter Abby, who just got back from her first year in college. A tale of relationships, family revelations and the search for love by a group of people in different stages of life, all trying to learn the same lesson: when to let others go. Selected for the Sundance Film Festival and the Forum Section of the Berlin Film Festival 2013.
