We All Live Here

Lila Kennedy’s life is in chaos. Her marriage is over, her two daughters are acting out, her house is falling apart, and her elderly stepfather seems to have moved in. She is struggling to maintain some semblance of a career, and her love life is anything but simple. 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.
