Tangled, unfinished lives. Imperfect, enigmatic people. One city. Three families, and the freedoms that bind them to each other. This is a story of overcoming loss. This is a story of healing broken things. This is a story of letting go. Three young kids, their parents, their regrets, their past histories and their rewritten future histories—does healing really happen? And more than anything, how much does loss account for in our lives? Does the sum of our sorrows outweigh the happy moments? And in the end, who are you and who do these losses make you?
