Grady is a 50-ish English professor who hasn't had a thing published in years—not since he wrote his award winning 'Great American Novel' 7 years ago. This weekend proves even worse than he could imagine as he finds himself reeling from one misadventure to another in the company of a new wonder boy author.
Mid-century academic chaos unfolds through a messy collision of failed literary ambitions and eccentric family ties. This sharp comedy captures the frantic, unglamorous struggle of a professor trying to reclaim his lost brilliance amidst a whirlwind of domestic disasters.
