A Midwestern family gathers for one last Christmas, but the real drama isn't about holiday cheer-it's about survival. The Lamberts represent a particular slice of American life: hardworking, stoic, deeply flawed, and desperately trying to hold together as the world they built crumbles. Alfred, the retired railroad engineer and family patriarch, is losing his battle with Parkinson's disease. His wife Enid clings to the fantasy that if she can just get their three adult children home for the holidays, everything will somehow be made right. But their children have scattered across the country, each carrying wounds from a childhood marked by emotional distance and rigid expectations. What unfolds is a portrait of family dysfunction so precise and unsparing that it feels uncomfortably familiar-because every family has its own version of the Lamberts' story, where love and resentment become so entangled they're impossible to separate. Alfred built his life on discipline, rationality, and self-denial. As an engineer, he valued precision and control. As a father, he provided financial security but emotional emptiness. Now Parkinson's disease is systematically dismantling everything he spent a lifetime constructing. His hands shake uncontrollably. He hallucinates talking turds that mock him from the toilet. His mind, once sharp enough to develop railroad patents, betrays him with increasing frequency.
