So, when her estranged father- who vanished to Hollywood 35 years ago- shows up at her house, Lila thinks she can’t take any more. However, Lila soon discovers that even the most complicated relationships can teach you profound lessons about love and what it truly means to be family.

We All Live Here is a heartfelt, funny, messy family drama that is full of surprises. It’s a reminder that even the family we think we can’t forgive may have something to teach us about love.
