โฆ Synopsis
New York ad exec Eric Alwin's life is at a crossroads: his 30-year marriage is suffering, and he finds himself chafing against his suburban world of diminishing possibilities. The care of his stroke-debilitated father, Frank, a selfish man who abandoned his family and whose political career ended in scandal, only adds to Eric's troubles. When encroaching mortality causes Frank to attempt to make amends, Eric accompanies his father on a road trip to the South--a journey that prompts self-examination for both men.
