SYNOPSIS
Based on the Kaui Hart Hemmings novel, this is set in Hawaii, the unconventional family drama tells the story of a newly widowed father -- the sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic journey for Matt King (George Clooney) an indifferent husband and father of two girls, who is forced to re-examine his past and embrace his future when his wife suffers a boating accident off of Waikiki. The event leads to a rapprochement with his young daughters while Matt wrestles with a decision to sell the family’s land handed down from Hawaiian royalty and missionaries.
