Last Chance. Long Odds.

DramaAction

The Cleary brothers, Sam, Leo and Douglas took dysfunctional families to a new level: Sam and Leo have grown up hating each other and neither likes their juvenile delinquent kid brother, Douglas, to whom they've only recently been introduced. The sons share the same father, a womanizing drunk, but all have different mothers. Their father died a rich man and when they're brought together by their sister Nina to learn which of them will inherit the old man's fortune, they are handed an unpleasant surprise.

VIBE

This film feels like a tense, simmering pot of sibling rivalry and unresolved family drama. Expect raw emotions, gritty confrontations, and a heavy dose of melancholic introspection as estranged brothers grapple with their shared past and uncertain future.
