Gloria is the thirty-eight-year-old mother of a sarcastic teenage daughter and the vaguely dissatisfied wife of a loving husband. When she must return to her family farm in its strict Mennonite community, she is forced to confront the demons of her past: estranged best friend, Des, whom Gloria abandoned when Des needed her most; the early love of her life, Gabe, now married to Des; and the ghost of her beloved twin brother, Jake, whose death as a teenager would deeply affect the lives of everyone around him for a generation. 2008.
