One week at golden Cape Cod. The perfect family holiday. What could possibly go wrong?

For the past two decades, Rocky has looked forward to her family’s yearly escape to the beach.

The humble, quirky house they rent has been the site of sweet memories, sunny days, shared mishaps and memories. It is a place where her family comes together and Rocky wants to cling to every moment.

Now, sandwiched between her children who are adult enough to be fun but still young enough to need her, and her parents who are ageing but healthy enough, Rocky wants to preserve this precious moment for ever.

But with her body in open revolt and surprises invading her peaceful haven, the seesaw of Rocky’s life is tipping towards change?
