Every family has a black sheep. This one is blue.

ComedyDrama

Leslie is left with few options when her husband is sent back to war in the Middle East. A modest amount of help arrives in the form of his brother, Salman, who is less than prepared to care for the couple's two preadolescent boys. When Leslie still can't make ends meet on her own, Salman is forced to find employment, but, with minimal qualifications, his only option is to become a mascot for a digital company by donning a bulbous blue costume.

This film feels like a warm hug from a slightly eccentric aunt. It's a gentle, character-focused story about finding connection and purpose in unexpected places, with a touch of bittersweet humor.
