The story
Two disconnected sisters are summoned to clean out their childhood bedrooms before their parents sell their family home.
What it’s like
Bright, flat suburban daylight pours through the windows of a split-level house in Orlando, and the camera stays close and mostly handheld, catching the clutter of a childhood bedroom: glitter-stickered mirrors, dusty trophies, boxes stacked against pastel walls. The palette runs warm and saturated, with sunburnt-pink dusks and the sticky sweetness of a Florida summer, while the score leans on bouncy pop and bright comic stings that keep the mood buoyant. Pacing is brisk and loose, built around improvised-feeling back-and-forth between its leads, with long laughs and sudden bursts of messy physical slapstick. Emotionally it sits in warm, sometimes raucous nostalgia, following two adult sisters who bicker, regress and slowly rediscover their closeness as the house empties around them. Intensity is low to moderate: crude language, sexual jokes, boozy party sequences and some cringe-comedy mishaps, but no real violence and nothing frightening. It suits a lazy weekend comedy, a comfort rewatch with someone you're close to, or a light evening after a long week, and it's for people who enjoy crude, character-driven comedy with a soft family heart.
